Why? Because no matter how much time, money, or anticipation you put into your break, the unexpected can still strike. A family emergency. A medical issue. A flight delay that snowballs into a missed connection. Even lost luggage can derail your plans.
That’s where travel insurance comes in.
Protect your trip, and your peace of mind
Think of travel insurance as a backup plan for your best-laid plans. If your trip is canceled, delayed, or cut short for reasons beyond your control, you may be able to recover some of the money you put into flights, accommodations, or activities.
SISIP offers travel insurance through Manulife, one of Canada’s most trusted providers. Plans are available to all CFOne card holders who reside in Canada, and members get a 10% discount on already affordable rates.
Whether you’re flying solo, planning a big family getaway, or visiting loved ones overseas, there’s a plan to suit your situation. And because it’s Manulife, you can count on the coverage to be clear, comprehensive, and supported by a team that knows the ins and outs of international travel.
Don’t forget the medical side
The Public Service Health Care Plan travel and emergency assistance benefits may cover CAF members and their families for certain emergency medical expenses within Canada, but it’s important to make sure you are fully covered—especially when traveling abroad. Manulife offers CAF members a complete menu of travel coverage options.
If you’re expecting March Break visitors such as parents or in-laws, Visitors to Canada insurance is designed to protect guests who aren’t covered under our public health plans. This coverage can help avoid surprise bills if someone needs medical attention during their stay.
If your child is studying abroad, or even studying in another province, Manulife’s student plans can help cover routine medical services and emergencies, and can even reimburse tuition fees if an illness prevents them from finishing a semester.
Good vibes only
Here’s the thing: most people don’t think about travel insurance until something goes wrong.
Like the family who had to cancel their long-awaited beach vacation after their child got the flu two days before departure. Thanks to their coverage, they were able to recover most of the non-refundable expenses.
Or the couple who lost their luggage on the way to a friend’s wedding. Their policy helped cover essentials so they could still enjoy the celebration.
These thing happen. Knowing you’re covered makes it easier to bounce back and keep the good vibes going.
Don’t wait until check-in to check this off your list
If you’re thinking about travel now, don’t leave insurance until later. Plans are simple to compare and easy to apply for online, with no lengthy questionnaires or complicated forms.
Here are some of your options:
- Protect your vacation with Trip Cancellation & Interruption insurance
- Safeguard your guests with a Visitors to Canada plan
- Support your student with flexible coverage while studying away from home
- Access Manulife’s trusted support no matter where your journey takes you
Your vacation should be about making memories, not worrying about what-ifs. So as you begin to picture that perfect March Break escape, make sure you pack peace of mind too.
