Generali offers U.S. residents simplicity and flexibility with three tiers to choose from—Premium, Preferred, and Standard.

Their coverage includes comprehensive protection for trip cancellation, trip interruption, emergency medical situations, and even cancellation for any reason, providing you with peace of mind during your travels.

Their COVID-19 coverage is a distinctive feature included in all three plans as is their 10-day Free Look Period, allowing you to evaluate the chosen plan. During this period, if you find the plan doesn't align with your needs, you may be eligible for a full premium refund.

Generali maintains an excellent credit rating to further protect you and your loved ones.
