By pre-paying for flights, hotels or car rentals, you can often save money. Many prepaid aspects of travel are often non-refundable - even in case of an emergency. Should something unexpected cause you to delay, cancel or interrupt your trip, this insurance could help you recover funds you've already paid out. It also extends protection to your baggage and personal effects, should they be lost, delayed or stolen.
