RBC Insurance is the brand name for the operating entities of Royal Bank of Canada—Canada’s biggest bank. RBC Insurance offers a range of insurance options, including life, health, home, auto and travel to individual, business and group clients.

RBC Insurance is underwritten by RBC Insurance Company of Canada.

Here are the key types of travel insurance coverage offered in RBC Insurance travel insurance plans:

  • Emergency medical insurance: If you get ill or are injured on your trip, travel medical insurance can pay for emergency medical expenses, up to the coverage limits in your plan. These expenses can include doctor and hospital bills, medication and lab work.
  • Trip cancellation insurance: If you cancel a trip for a reason listed in your travel policy, such as you or your travelling companion becoming ill, weather conditions causing a massive delay or you losing your job,  trip cancellation insurance can reimburse you for prepaid, non-refundable costs.
  • Travel interruption or delay insurance: Trip interruption insurance can pay for a last-minute flight home in an emergency and reimburse money that you lose by cutting a trip short, such as non-refundable activities and hotel stays. If your flight is delayed , your insurance can cover the cost of incidentals, such as meals or accommodations, after a specified period of time, such as 10 or 12 hours.
  • Baggage insurance: Baggage travel insurance can compensate you up to your policy limits if your luggage is lost or stolen. It will reimburse the depreciated value of your suitcases and what you packed. If your bags are delayed, it can reimburse you for the cost of the necessities you’ll have to buy to tide you over. It also extends to your personal belongings, if anything is lost, damaged or stolen.
  • Travel accident insurance. This coverage offers compensation in the event of accidental death or catastrophic injury from an accident during your trip. Flight Accident Insurance covers injury while you’re on a commercial plane, during a connection or in an airport. Travel Accident Insurance covers death or dismemberment, including the loss of limbs or eyesight, while on your trip.

RBC Insurance Travel Insurance offers three packaged plans for travelling outside of Canada:

Deluxe Package: This is the most comprehensive plan offered by RBC Insurance. It includes coverage for unforeseen medical emergencies, trip cancellation and interruption, flight and travel accidents, and baggage loss, damage and delay.

Emergency medical treatment includes:

  • Hospital accommodation in a semi-private room
  • Services of a legally licensed physician, surgeon, anaesthetist or nurse
  • Private duty nursing
  • Ground or air ambulance
  • Rental or purchase of a hospital bed, wheelchair, brace, crutch or any other medical appliance
  • Diagnostic tests
  • Prescription drugs and medication
  • Paramedical services, such as care from a chiropractor, osteopath, physiotherapist, chiropodist or podiatrist, up to $300 per profession
  • Ambulance transportation
  • Emergency dental due to a blow to the face (emergency expenses covered during your trip, plus $1,500 when you return home)
  • Emergency dental due to pain, up to $300

Medical benefits also include coverage to bring someone to your bedside, expenses for meals, hotel accommodations and associated expenses if a medical delay prevents you from returning home, repatriation expenses, return of your remains if you die and a hospital allowance for expenses such as parking and TV rental.

Non-Medical Package: If you have medical coverage elsewhere, such as a RBC travel credit card , this covers trip cancellation and trip interruption, flight and travel accidents, and baggage loss, damage and delay.

TravelCare Package: For travellers over age 75, this package includes coverage for unlimited emergency medical, trip cancellation and interruption, baggage loss, damage and delay, and flight and travel accidents. Pre-existing conditions may also be covered depending on your answers to a medical questionnaire and the TravelCare category for which you qualify. There are three TravelCare categories: Gold, Silver and Bronze. Travellers with a score of zero on the questionnaire will be assigned to the Gold category that stipulates a 90-day stability period for pre-existing conditions. Travellers with median scores (between 5 and 35) will be assigned to the Silver category that requires a 180-day stability period, while travellers with the highest scores (40 and over) will be assigned to the Bronze category that requires a 365 day stability period. Here are some examples of questions and the related scores:

  • Have you ever, in your lifetime, been diagnosed with any heart conditions? (No= 0, Yes = 20)
  • In the last 12 months have you received or has your physician recommended chemotherapy or radiation therapy for any cancer condition? (No = 0, Yes = 5)
  • In the past 12 months, have you used or been prescribed oxygen? (No = 0, Yes = 40)

Family plan pricing is available for both the Deluxe Package and Non-Medical Package.

When you go through the quote process, RBC Insurance also offers prices for basic Cancellation and Interruption Insurance and Classic Medical insurance.

We’ve highlighted key benefits of RBC Insurance Travel Insurance for the single trip plans to help you identify which coverage is the best fit for you.

Yes. You can buy multi-trip annual insurance if you travel more than once a year for multiple individual trips. RBC Insurance offers the Deluxe Package and the TravelCare Package for nine, 16 or 30 days. There is no multi-trip option for the Non-Medical Package. If you stay longer than the number of days you purchased, you can purchase a top-up.

Here’s how the prices between single-trip and multi-trip insurance for 16 days compare:

Worldwide emergency medical assistance is available 24/7 by calling RBC’s claims and assistance partner Allianz Global Assistance. When you have a medical emergency, the following support may be available:

  • Referral to a recommended medical service provider near you
  • Transportation to a suitable facility for medical treatment to stabllize or treat your medical condition
  • Confirmation of coverage and direct payment of fees to the recommended medical service provider
  • Consultation with your attending physician to monitor your care
  • Monitoring of the appropriateness, necessity and reasonableness of care to ensure expenses will be covered

If you don’t call Allianz Global Assistance first, your benefits may be reduced and your coverage may be limited to 70% of your medical expenses under your insurance plan, meaning you’ll be financially responsible for 30% out of pocket.

RBC Insurance will not pay any medical expenses related to a medical condition that is not stable for a set period of time before your coverage takes effect, either 90, 180 or 365 days depending on your answers to a medical questionnaire that will assign you to one of three TravelCare categories: Gold, Silver or Bronze.

  • The medical condition has not become worse
  • There has not been any new, more frequent or more severe symptoms
  • There has been no hospitalization or referral to a specialist
  • There have not been any tests, investigation or treatment recommended but not yet complete, nor any outstanding test results
  • There is no planned or pending treatment

In addition, RBC Insurance will not cover:

  • Any heart condition that is not stable in the 90, 180 or 365 days before your trip
  • Any heart condition for which you’ve had to take nitroglycerin for angina pain in the 90, 180 or 365 days before your departure date
  • Any lung condition that is not stable in the 90, 180 or 365 days before your trip
  • Any lung condition for which you’ve been treated with or prescribed home oxygen, prednisone or prednisolone in the 90, 180 or 365 days before your departure date

RBC Insurance Travel Insurance FAQs

Does rbc insurance pay for medical costs upfront.

According to the company, the payment of eligible medical services will be coordinated through RBC Insurance, communicated with your medical provider and billing arrangements “will be discussed.” The insurer notes that pay assistance “may not be available from certain medical service providers for reasons beyond our control.”

Does RBC Insurance offer coverage extensions?

Yes. Your coverage is automatically extended for 72 hours starting on the final day of your trip due to a transportation delay. If you or your travelling companion are hospitalized, your coverage is extended for the period of hospitalization, plus up to five days after discharge. If you or your travelling companion is unfit to travel due to a medical emergency that does not require hospitalization, your coverage is automatically extended for up to five days.

You can also request an extension if you want to stay longer on your trip, provided you apply before the expiry date of your policy and you haven’t made any claims or you’re not currently seeking treatment. If the extension is not available, you may be able to purchase a new policy.

Does RBC Insurance cover COVID-19?

The emergency medical coverage provides for medical expenses related to COVID-19 as long as there are no “Avoid all travel” or “Avoid all non-essential travel” advisories issued by the Canadian government on the day you depart on your trip. RBC Insurance will not pay trip cancellation or interruption benefits if you are required to cancel your trip for a reason related to COVID-19 unless:

• You get sick with COVID-19 and it prevents you from travelling as planned • Your spouse and/or children become sick with COVID-19 and prevents you from travelling as planned

Does RBC Insurance require a medical questionnaire?

Yes. Travellers age 65 and over must complete a comprehensive medical questionnaire that asks questions about your eligibility for insurance.

If it’s discovered that you did not answer the questions truthfully or there are any errors, this may void your plan and/or your claim may be denied.

Also, regardless of age, if the non-refundable portion of your pre-paid travel expenses exceeds $15,000, you will be required to complete the medical questionnaire.

Does RBC Insurance have any age restrictions?

If you are between 60 and 75 years old, the maximum number of travel days is 60 days. Also, travellers over age 65 need to quote and buy insurance separately even when travelling together. The Deluxe Package is available for travellers aged 0 to 74 for single trip plans and age 0 to 64 for multi-trip plans. The TravelCare Package is available for travellers age 75 and over for single trip plans and age 65 and over for multi-trip plans. The Non-Medical Package is available for all ages.

When does my coverage with RBC Insurance begin?

In general, if you purchase cancellation coverage, it begins the day you buy your policy and ends the day when you make a claim or leave on your trip. Your interruption coverage, if purchased, begins when you leave home. Your delay coverage begins once an insured risk prevents you from returning home as scheduled.

Does RBC Insurance offer a free look period?

Yes. RBC Insurance offers a 10-day “Free Look” period where you can review your policy and decide to cancel it within 10 days of purchase if you have not already left for your trip and there is no claim in progress or you have not experienced an event that would cause you to submit a claim.

Can I get a refund with RBC Insurance?

Refunds after the 10 day “Free Look” period are not permitted unless:

• The supplier (tour operator, airline, etc.) cancels your trip and all penalties are waived • The supplier changes the travel days and you are unable to travel on these dates and all penalties are waived • You cancel your trip before any cancellation penalties are in effect

Tips for Seniors Buying Travel Insurance

Travel insurance can be essential for many types of trips, but seniors are particularly vulnerable to travel-related problems. Most notably, travelers age 65+ should consider a travel insurance policy with medical insurance and medical evacuation benefits.

Understand Insurance Needs When Traveling Abroad

With the vaccine rollout and countries relaxing border restrictions, you may be thinking about taking that river cruise to Portugal or a wine tour in France.

It’s important to know that when you travel outside the United States a domestic health insurance plan will not generally travel with you. This includes Medicare.

A key focus for seniors should be travel insurance with high limits of travel medical insurance, says Jeremy Murchland, president of travel insurance company Seven Corners. “Some plans on the market limit coverage to only $25,000 or $50,000,” he says. “Depending on the type of care needed, this may not be enough to cover the cost.”

“Most Medicare plans will not cover a person outside of the U.S. or U.S. territories,” explains Gail Manganite, lead customer advocate for InsureMyTrip, a travel insurance comparison provider. She notes that there are some Medigap and supplemental plans that offer health coverage outside the U.S., but deductibles and copayments will still apply.

Find out if your current health insurance includes emergency medical coverage outside the country and what restrictions apply. Then you’ll know how much travel medical insurance you need to fill the gap.

If you want top-notch coverage, look for travel insurance plans that offer $500,000 in medical coverage.

Get Medical Coverage for Pre-Existing Conditions

You don’t want a pre-existing condition to flare up during a trip, but in case it happens, have a travel insurance plan that covers it. You do this by getting a pre-existing medical condition exclusion waiver.

The availability of this important waiver is time-limited:  You’ll have to add it to a travel insurance plan within a specified number of days from the date you make your first trip payment. For example, Seven Corners’ RoundTrip Choice plan covers pre-existing conditions if you buy it within 20 days of the date of your initial trip payment.

But your plan might have a window of only 14 days to get pre-existing conditions covered.

Plan for Medical Evacuation Coverage

If you require an emergency airlift back to the United States, it could easily cost $100,000 or more for private, emergency transport. Emergency medical evacuation insurance pays to move you to a medical facility with appropriate and necessary care if the facility where you are located is unable to provide the level of care needed for your medical condition, says Murchland.

You can find travel insurance plans with up to $1 million in coverage for emergency medical evacuation.

Be Aware of “Cancel for Any Reason” Coverage

“Cancel for any reason” coverage is an add-on that you can tack on to some travel insurance plans. It will add about 40% to your travel insurance cost but gives you the widest flexibility to cancel the trip for any reason and get some reimbursement (typically 50% or 75%).

Without it, you’ll receive trip cancellation reimbursement only if you cancel for a reason listed in the base policy, such as an illness or injury that forces you to abandon travel plans. “Cancel for any reason” coverage will give you the option to cancel for reasons like a sudden fear of flying or simply changing your mind.

Consider Customer Service Options

Murchland says to pick a travel insurance company that has services that match your comfort level.

“For example, Seven Corners has found that a higher percentage of seniors wish to discuss a travel insurance plan over the phone and, in some cases, want assistance selecting a plan and executing a purchase,” he says. “In today’s world of chat bots and email, this is an important consideration for seniors who would prefer to talk with a person.”

Stay on Top of Your Insurance Timeline

Buying a travel insurance plan early and taking the time to read it can pay off later. In addition, a travel insurance agent can help you understand what the policy covers and find plans that fit your travel insurance concerns. It’s wise to:

  • Buy your plan early (shortly after you make your first trip deposit) so you don’t miss out on key benefits like pre-existing conditions coverage.
  • Review your plan information well before your trip . Understand what reasons are covered for trip cancellation insurance claims. If you want broader coverage, consider adding “cancel for any reason” coverage, which also needs to be added shortly after your first trip payment.
  • Feel comfortable asking questions to ensure you understand your plan and how it works.
  • Keep in mind that travel insurance plans offer 24/7 travel assistance help . If you run into trouble during your trip, make use of the professional help available for language translation, finding a pharmacy and much more.

Methodology

Using data provided by Squaremouth, a travel insurance comparison provider, we evaluated 24 travel insurance plans that have at least $100,000 in travel medical coverage and at least $250,000 in emergency medical evacuation coverage. Scores were based on:

  • Travel insurance rates (50% of score) for a range of travelers age 65 and older, for trips in a variety of lengths, destinations and costs.
  • Coverage benefits (50% of score) including travel medical expenses, cancel for any reason availability, Covid coverage, medical evacuation, baggage delay, baggage loss, missed connection, non-medical evacuation, travel delay.

As an older adult, you may look forward to traveling the world when you retire. Whether taking a single trip or traveling extensively, health concerns and sickness can derail even the best plans.

One way to address those risks is to purchase one of the best travel insurance policies for older adults . We cover multiple insurance carriers and provide policy premiums and benefits examples to help you find the best travel insurance to meet your needs.

This is the shortlist of the best travel insurance for older adults:

HTH Travel Insurance .

John Hancock .

TravelSafe .

Seven Corners .

World Nomads .

Factors we considered when picking a travel insurance policy

Choosing the right travel insurance policy is an important decision. Yet, the best travel insurance company depends on your needs and budget. Here are the factors we focused on when making this list.

Available policy types . The best travel insurance companies offer multiple policy types to meet the needs of various travelers.

Policy coverage limits . How much will the policy cover if you need to make a claim?

Exclusions . Do you have pre-existing conditions that may affect your ability to travel, increase the potential for medical treatments during your trip or cut your trip short? What would cause the insurance company to deny a claim?

Cost . How much does the insurance company charge for a basic policy? Is this price affected by your age, length of the trip or overall health condition?

Website usability . We value insurance companies that make it simple for travelers to compare options, get a quote and purchase a policy online.

Customization . Are the insurance company's policies customizable to meet a traveler's needs or must they choose from a rigid set of options?

What matters most to you also impacts which travel insurance is best for you. Whether it's medical evacuation, pre-existing conditions or the repatriation of remains, each policy's coverages and limits differ.

Additionally, policy premiums can vary widely based on the length of coverage and your age. If you frequently travel, buying an annual policy instead of policies for each trip may make more sense. Additionally, your premiums may be much different as a new retiree at 65 compared with someone in their 70s or 80s.

You may be able to save money on your travel insurance policy by taking advantage of credit card benefits. For example, many travel cards include trip cancellation, delay and interruption benefits, luggage protection and rental car coverage at no additional charge when using the card to book flights and rent cars.

An overview of the best travel insurance for older adults

We requested quotes from multiple travel insurance companies for a 10-day trip to Madrid in July 2023. Our hypothetical traveler is a 65-year-old man from California who is spending $8,000 for the trip. His trip cost includes airfare plus prepaid hotels and excursions.

On average, the price of a policy offered by the listed companies was about $514, with a median price of $609.

* Cost refers to the basic coverage cost if multiple options are available.

There are various coverage options and price points when comparing travel insurance policies for older adults. While the lowest-priced options in the chart are the most affordable, their policies offer different coverage. For example, policies from HTH Travel Insurance only provide medical coverage but not trip interruption, delay or cancellation protection.

Comparing coverage limits and exclusions when selecting a policy is important so you are satisfied when making a claim.

Top travel insurance options for older adults

Let's look at our six travel insurance policy recommendations for older adults.

HTH Travel Insurance

What makes HTH Travel Insurance great:

Medical benefits of up to $1 million with deductibles as low as $0.

Access to English-speaking doctors in more than 180 countries.

Insurance covers hospital care, surgery and prescription drugs.

Here's a snippet from our HTH Travel Insurance review:

"HTH has a few travel insurance policies. These include medical plans and trip protection plans, so you'll want to decide what type of coverage you require."

Since Medicare doesn't cover healthcare needs when traveling outside the United States, some travelers purchase healthcare-only policies such as this one from HTH Travel Insurance. For our test trip, their healthcare-only coverage cost is just $90. However, keep in mind that this plan only provides medical coverage — if you want insurance for things like trip cancellation , trip interruption or baggage delay, you'll need to purchase a different plan.

rbc travel insurance seniors

John Hancock

What makes John Hancock great:

Emergency medical evacuation coverage starts at $250,000 per person.

Trip interruption coverage of 125% of trip cost.

Trip delay benefits start at six hours.

Here's a snippet from our John Hancock review:

"John Hancock offers three different plans for travelers depending on their needs: Gold, Silver and Bronze. As you'd expect, the Gold level comes with the most coverage and the highest price, while the Bronze level costs the least."

John Hancock's basic coverage cost for our test trip is $616, which is slightly above average. This policy is ideal for travelers worried about health problems requiring an emergency medical evacuation during their trip.

rbc travel insurance seniors

What makes TravelSafe great:

Coverage for pre-existing conditions is available if the policy is purchased within 21 days of booking travel.

Includes a $500 benefit for missed connections or trip delays.

Trip cancellation protection of up to $10,000.

Here's a snippet from our TravelSafe review:

"TravelSafe insurance offers two different plan types: Basic and Classic. Both of them only cover single trips; the company doesn't sell multi-trip or year-long plans. The TravelSafe Basic plan offers a lower level of protection than the company's more expensive option, TravelSafe Classic."

TravelSafe's basic coverage cost for our test trip is $855. While this policy has a higher price, it offers coverage for pre-existing conditions if you buy it within 21 days of booking your trip.

rbc travel insurance seniors

Seven Corners

What makes Seven Corners great:

Lost baggage benefits of $500 per person (per item limit of $250).

Delayed bags are reimbursed up to $100 per day ($500 max).

Trip delay of up to $200 per day per person after six hours ($600 maximum).

Here's a snippet from our Seven Corners review:

"The RoundTrip Basic plan is a good comprehensive travel insurance option and offers 100% trip cancellation (for trips up to $30,000), 100% trip interruption, $100,000 for emergency medical expenses (secondary coverage), $250,000 for medical evacuation/repatriation, lost luggage, baggage delay and other benefits."

Seven Corners' basic coverage cost for our test trip is $602, which is slightly above average. It offers superior protection against lost or delayed luggage, which can really put a damper on your travel plans.

rbc travel insurance seniors

What makes Tin Leg great:

Trip cancellation and interruption for COVID included at no extra charge.

Coverage extended up to seven days for medical quarantine .

Sports equipment is covered under baggage loss coverage.

Here's a snippet from our Tin Leg review:

"Tin Leg offers nine different travel insurance coverage policies. Prices vary for each depending on your itinerary and trip costs. The Basic plan is exactly what it sounds like: a policy for low-risk trips. It includes coverage for trip cancellation, delay and interruption, plus missed connections, emergency medical and evacuation, and lost and delayed luggage coverage."

Tin Leg's basic coverage cost for our test trip is $844. COVID's impact on retirees can be severe, so having a policy with generous benefits regarding coronavirus is critical. One of the best features includes up to one week of additional coverage at no charge if you're medically quarantined.

rbc travel insurance seniors

World Nomads

What makes World Nomads great:

Covers more than 200 adventure activities.

Ability to extend coverage while traveling.

Emergency medical coverage of $100,000 for all policies.

Here's a snippet from our World Nomads review:

"World Nomads offers the Standard and Explorer travel insurance plans and excels in sports/activity-related travel insurance coverage while offering solid trip delay, baggage delay and lost luggage protections. The provider offers insurance plans for travel to nearly any country and is available to residents of most countries."

World Nomads' basic coverage cost for our test trip is $74. However, take note of the coverage limits on its policies, which can be much lower than the cost of your trip. Its Basic policy coverage caps trip cancellation or interruption at $2,500, which could leave a large gap in comparison to our traveler's $8,000 trip cost.

Best travel insurance for older adults recapped 

The types of insurance plans for older adults — and how much they cost — vary significantly. There are options for those who only want to cover medical costs and plans for those who want coverage for any travel mishap that might befall them.

Other things to consider are pre-existing medical conditions, what types of activities you're doing and how long you'll be traveling.

Your chosen policy will depend on your travel needs and your comfort with risk. The upfront cost may be well worth it if you need to make a claim on an expensive injury, a canceled flight or a medical evacuation.

Moscow Travel Meeting - 16 November, 2019

Looking forward to seeing several of the Moscow Region Travel Group on Saturday, 16 November at 10:30 at One World Café, 533 South Main Street in Moscow...IDAHO! We get to have the "Back Room" till 1:00 so you're welcome to come and go as you need--we're very laid back! Some of us have just returned from trips so we can expect some great Trip Reports but we also thoroughly enjoy helping plan trips, answer questions, love new tips and suggestions. Everyone's experience and perspectives are fascinating! You'll see a world map on the table in the Back Room as well as several Rick Steves' guide books, maps or miscellaneous Show & Tell items for travel. (Anyone have something for Show & Tell?) Please let us know if you will be there so we can be sure to have plenty of chairs. Because of the busy season and the usual challenges with the snowy roads, we don't meet in December. Our next meeting will be January 18, 2020. Looking forward to seeing you!

I'll be there! And no, I won't have a PowerPoint presentation of my recent trip, haha! What about you? Will you have a PowerPoint?

No, Pam, no PowerPoint! Although don't ever be surprised if Doug does one. Knowing Doug it would be all about numbers though! Might bring my Album (yes, the kind with real photo paper) from the Sisters of SJ Heritage tour for people to flip through on their own.

3 7 42 12 19 See? I can do numbers too, lol!

How many do we have for Saturday? Have you heard from M&S?

Yea!!! So happy you all will be there!

Yay! So far we have Monte & Sharon, Rena, Judy, Pam and Doug & Darcy. I'll let you do the math, Pam.

And Rog, we'd sure like to see some of your packing spread sheets! Could you bring your scales so we can weigh my coffee mug and heating coil, please? (Pam, do you think by asking for the scales that I can get Rog to come to the meeting again? It's been a while!)

Hahaha....not sure. They've got some stuff to do.

I've got kitchen scales if you actually need them!

My digital kitchen scale is one of the best purchases I ever made (about 20 years ago, it seems like!). I weigh every piece of clothing I pack down to the tenth of the ounce!

Happy meeting, you guys!

Thanks, Pam and Janet but actually I don't need to weigh anything! I was just trying to get Rog to the meeting--SHHHHHH, don't tell!

and we have Rod and Lanore--Yay! We just have to contend with the fog but Doug said that we'll be through before we get to the top of the Lewiston Hill. We're leaving early just in case. See you all there!

You'll probably be out of the fog once you get to the top of Lewiston Hill. It's not foggy in Troy right now so I suspect no fog in Moscow or Genesee either.

Thanks, Pam. That's reassuring because at the moment, I can just barely see our back fence! You'd never know there was a "lake" behind us. See you shortly!
