Travel worry-free with travel insurance through

Medavie Blue Cross.

Family excursion, relaxing getaway or business trip—no matter where your travels take you, make sure to pack Blue Cross travel insurance. An accident or medical emergency while travelling could cost you thousands if you don’t have the right protection.

Coverage beyond your provincial medical plan

Out-of-province emergency medical expenses are not generally covered by your provincial medical plan and these expenses can be financially overwhelming. For millions of Canadians, comprehensive emergency travel coverage offered by Blue Cross has become an essential part of their holiday plans.

A plan for every type of traveler

While travelling outside your own province, some medical and paramedical expenses may only be partially covered by your provincial health insurance program. Depending on your needs, you can opt for coverage on a daily or annual basis. Whether you travel frequently during the year, take regular sun destination trips or do only occasional short trips, there is a plan that’s right for you.

Let Blue Cross travel coverage take care of any unexpected medical emergency costs so you can travel worry free.

FLIGHT DELAY SERVICE | HOW IT WORKS!

To provide our clients with the best possible protection, we offer the Flight Delay Service free of charge to anyone who has travel insurance1. This service provides our clients with a range of benefits intended to improve their experience in case of flight delay. Depending on the length of the delay, Blue Cross clients may have access to a preferred lounge area as well as a hotel room.

or
$40 compensation per person if no lounge is available
6 hours or more

$50 allowance per person up to a maximum of $200 per policy

 

1 The following products are not eligible for Flight Delay Service: Visitors to Canada, group travel insurance, health insurance products (including those with travel coverage).

How to register?

To benefit from the Flight Delay Service, clients must create an account on the flightdelayservice.ca website and follow the next steps: 

  1. Enter the names of all insured persons 
  2. Save flight information and insurance contract number 
  3. Choose a fund transfer method for the payment of allowances (Interac or bank account) 

How does the Flight Delay Service work? 

Once registered, the Flight Delay Service takes care of monitoring our client’s flight in real time. In the event of a flight delay, they will receive an email or a text message (SMS) which will inform them of the procedure to follow to enjoy their perks. Alerts can include: 

  • Flight delay notices 
  • Coupons for airport lounge and hotel room reservations 
  • A notice of fund transfer 

Example

A Blue Cross client has saved his flight information from Houston to Miami. The scheduled departure time is
6:00 am, but the flight is delayed for at least three hours.

At 9:01 a.m., Flight Delay Service sends an SMS/email to your client offering access to the Houston airport lounge. If no place is available, a compensation of $40 per person will then be sent to them in real time.

The flight is again delayed for at least three hours.

At 12:01 p.m., Flight Delay Service sends a new SMS/email to our client offering access to a hotel room near the Houston Airport and an additional $50 compensation per person. If no hotel room is available, a $250 compensation will be paid to them in real time.

Blue Cross clients can save their flight information up to 1 hour before the scheduled departure time. 

After this period, it will no longer be possible to do so.
