Travel insurance, especially trip cancellation
coverage, is strongly recommended. Laurus Travel
recommends RBC Insurance and
MH Ross. The
premium depends on your age, cost, trip duration and
plan choice. Trip cost should include airfare taxes and surcharges, visa fees, single supplement, and extension costs, wherever
applicable. Discounted business class air tickets arranged by Laurus Travel
carry a hefty penalty in case of cancellation.
RBC Insurance
is a Canadian insurer. Its non-medical package and trip
cancellation & interruption plans are available to anyone regardless of their
country of residence. Its deluxe package
is intended for Canadian residents only because
of its medical coverage, which is tied to the Canadian universal medical
care system. Please

MH Ross
is a U.S. company based in California. It deals with US and Canadian residents only. Canadians who
already have extended health insurance through employment may find the company's
waiver of pre-existing conditions attractive. Please

Currency Conversion
Premium quotes and benefits are
expressed in the currency of the country where the insurer is located.
Some credit card issuers not only make money on the currency conversion but also
add another 1 percent to all "foreign purchases". If necessary, please review
you credit card agreement first. For
up-to-date currency exchange rates we recommend
