Adventure Sports Travel Insurance Forum

Hi,

I am from New Zealand and I will be visiting US for some sports activities. I am looking for coverage options for the Sky Diving. Can you suggest me something?

Thank you for contacting us for US visitor insurance coverage for sky diving!

In the brochure scroll down to the Optional Enhancement policy riders and check the details under Table 1 under "Low Option". You will find that skydiving comes under this section. While purchasing the plan online you will have to remember this.

Please have a look at this page where we have all our Sports plans:   Sports Coverage

You can also type the name of the activity in the 'Quick Search' in the above link and view the number of plans available for that activity and also the details of the plan available at the bottom of the results page.

Please let us know if we can help you in any further.

,Hi there,

Just making enquiries about travel insurance while I'm visiting US, I'm a Skydive instructor who jumps out of a plane with customers attached to me.

I need an insurance quote(plan) that just suits me and resonable price. My max coverage should be 100,000 dollars probably. Anyways just waiting to hear from you.

Dear Jason,

Here is a plan that has an excellent sports rider option that covers wide variety of adventure sports including collegiate sports, mountain climbing, skiing, sky diving etc.

This is a comprehensive coverage plan. The plan pays co-insurance 80% of Covered Expenses up to $5,000 and 100% thereafter up to the selected policy maximum. This is a deductible per policy period plan. This plan provides $20,000 coverage for 80+ travelers.

In the brochure scroll down to the Optional Enhancement policy riders and check the details under Table 1 under "Low Option". You will find that skydiving comes under this section. While purchasing the plan online you will have to remember this.

Please note that if you wish to be able to renew the policy, you must purchase the Diplomat LongTerm plan (must be purchased for at least 3 months the first time it is purchased): Diplomat Longterm Insurance

Please feel free to let us know in case of any questions.

Hello,

I am a resident in the US and ride a motorcycle. My friend is visiting from outside US and the standard visitor insurances exclude coverage for being motorcycle passenger. Can I get coverage using atlas america by WorldTrips?

Please help with clarification.

Dear Joy Dutta,

For your situation, Liaison Choice Insurance plan from the insurance company Seven Corners is the best suited option. This plan specifically states in the company brochure that coverage for motorcycle riding for both driver and passenger is available.

Hi,

I will be traveling to the USA 20th July to 6th Sep and will do motorcycle touring, part of it off-road. We are shipping our own dual purpose bikes over there, as we have done plenty riding within New Zealand.

Wish to inquire about comprehensive medical insurance that does not exclude this type of activity. I am part of a group of nine doing this, we are in our 50's and owned/ridden motorcycles most of our lives.

Can you please confirm any exclusions I should be aware off that may relate to this type of activity.

Dear Wilhelm,

If you have further questions or concerns, please email us in response.

Hi,

Just emailing regarding your mountaineering insurance policy. Could I check what is your stance on self-guided mountaineering trips below 7000m? Are such trips still covered under your policy? Also, given that your coverage excludes mountains above 7000m, you might want to exclude Mt Everest (8848m) on your list of suggested mountains...

Hi,

Hello, I'm Italian And I'm going to Turkey for a legal base jump event.

Have you an insurance plan which cover me?

Thanks,

Mario

Dear Mario,

International offered by Global Underwriters.

Here is the link to get a quote for the policy and look over the brochure:

You must choose the sports rider called " Athletic and Hazardous Activity Rider" and specifically choose "sky diving" to be covered. This will increase the cost of your insurance.

The online application is a little cumbersome . You must choose the age of the traveler . Then choose the plan (Plan A for $50,000 maximum, etc) and deductible for the policy. The deductible is what you must pay first before the insurance starts to pay on the insured's behalf. Note that the maximum and deductible are per person. Choose the country of destination. Enter the start (or effective) and end dates of the policy (note that there is a 15 day minimum).

Once you have that filled out, you must click on the button labelled "Add to Itinerary". At this point, you will have the opportunity to choose a rider. Select the "Athletic, Sports and Hazardous Activity Rider" from the drop down menu. Then select all applicable sports and activities you want to be covered and in your case, you must choose "Sky Diving".

Finally, choose "Calculate Quote" at the bottom of the page. The page will then show you the cost of the insurance for the parameters you entered. If you decrease the maximum of the plan or increase the deductible, this will lower the cost of your insurance. If you want to make changes, select "Change Quote" and alter parameters as desired, or select "Purchase Policy" to make an online purchase.

Once your purchase is complete, you will get an onscreen message giving you your insurance details as well as a confirmation email. You should print out your ID cards to carry with you on your trip as these will have all the relevant information needed to access your insurance should you need it.

Please feel free to call or email us with any further questions or concerns you may have. We wish you safe and exciting travel!
