Due to the adventurous style of travel offered by Aurora Expeditions and the remoteness of the areas in which we travel, it is a condition of travel with Aurora Expeditions that all passengers are covered by comprehensive travel insurance prior to departure, and that they maintain such insurance for the duration of the expedition. This may help protect your travel investment, your belongings and most importantly, you from many unforeseen circumstances that may arise before or during your trip.
Passengers travelling with Aurora Expeditions are required to be covered by a reputable travel insurance policy that includes baggage loss, cancellation & curtailment of holiday, medical, accident and repatriation/emergency evacuation coverage worth at least $250,000 USD. Proof of insurance will be required ahead of travel and we will require that it be emailed to Aurora no later than 60 days prior to departure.
While there are several insurance companies offering travel protection plans, Aurora Expeditions recommends Redpoint and has arranged for dedicated resources to support our guests’ needs. To obtain additional information and explore options for coverage, please contact Redpoint directly at 415-481-0610 or by visiting Redpoint Travel Protection.
We recommend that you purchase your insurance at the same time as you book your trip to ensure you are also covered against trip cancellation.
International travellers are required to book travel insurance via a local insurance provider in your home country.
