For example, the Patriot T.R.I.P. plan offers trip cancellation coverage if your travel plans are canceled due to circumstances beyond your control.

AIG and IMG are just two examples of travel insurance providers. There are lots of companies out there that provide all kinds of coverage for all kinds of travelers.
