Travel Insurance

BBYO has partnered with a licensed travel insurance agent to offer travel insurance. They provide a cost-effective solution for student groups with important benefits like trip cancellation, trip interruption, missed connection, trip delay and baggage delay. Families should strongly consider purchasing travel insurance to protect their investment and plan for the unexpected. Families may also opt to purchase travel insurance through a provider of their choosing.

Important: Every year, some families experience unexpected circumstances after cancellation deadlines have passed, including illness, hospitalization, injury, mental health concerns, a death in the family, or other emergencies that prevent a participant from attending or require them to leave a program early. Once BBYO's cancellation deadlines have passed, program fees are non-refundable and non-transferable, as funds have already been committed to transportation, accommodations, staffing, and other program expenses. For this reason, we strongly encourage all families to purchase travel protection to safeguard their financial investment and help provide coverage for eligible unforeseen circumstances.
