Travel Insurance
You just booked a trip and made a sizable investment with your deposit. What happens if you can’t make the trip? Or worse, what happens in the case of a serious emergency while on your trip?
The trip cost for a visit to the Palometa Club is non-refundable unless replacement guests are found. While we will make every effort to rebook your space, it is often very difficult to fill last minute vacancies. Given the strict cancellation and refund policies associated with nearly all fishing packages, we cannot stress enough the importance of obtaining travel insurance to protect your investment.
TRAVELERS CAN OBTAIN COVERAGE FOR:
• Medical Cancellation, including pre-existing health problems (related to you, family, or business/traveling partners)***
• Emergency Evacuation
• Lost Baggage
• Delay and Interruption
• “Cancel For Any Reason” (CFAR)***
IMPORTANT
IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR MAXIMUM AVAILABLE COVERAGE FOR ANY PRE-EXISTING MEDICAL CONDITIONS, AS WELL AS THE “CANCEL FOR ANY REASON” COVERAGE, YOU MUST BUY YOUR TRAVEL INSURANCE POLICY WITHIN FIFTEEN DAYS OF MAKING YOUR INITIAL TRIP DEPOSIT!

COVID-19 & “CANCEL FOR ANY REASON” (CFAR) COVERAGE
While standard insurance policies do not cover cancellations or interruptions due to prospective Covid-19 related border closures or government shutdowns, you can book a “Cancel For Any Reason” (CFAR) policy that will cover 75% of trip cost due to any Covid-19 cancellations related to border closings or travel bans. Please note, however, that standard policies DO cover medical cancellations in the event you are actually ill with Covid-19.
With respect to CFAR coverage, you should expect premiums to be a bit higher than a standard policy. Additionally, CFAR policies (and coverage for any pre-existing health conditions, if applicable) must be booked within 15 days of making your deposit.
