Does vacation insurance cover hurricanes?

Vacation insurance plans differ in how they cover hurricanes. Generali’s plans can provide coverage if you have to cancel or interrupt your trip because your destination is made uninhabitable due to a hurricane or storm.

Also, if your destination is in the path of a storm that is forecasted and named, most plans will no longer provide coverage for situations that occur due to that storm.

This can be a tricky area for many travelers to understand, so read your Description of Coverage/Policy before buying and talk to your travel professional if you have questions.
