WASHINGTON — Life happens, and sometimes you need to cancel your travel plans to deal with issues closer to home.
But if you’ve already booked plane tickets, you could be out hundreds of dollars.
“It’s sort of like trying to buy fire insurance after the fire breaks out in the second-floor apartment,” , Travel Editor for CBS 小萝莉影视, tells 小萝莉影视. “You have to buy insurance before there’s a known incident.”

However, he says, don’t buy insurance from the travel provider itself. There’s a chance the language in the policy won’t benefit you, Greenberg concludes.
