Review of Seven Corners RoundTrip Elite Travel Insurance

RoundTrip Elite, a comprehensive trip insurance plan from Seven Corners Travel Insurance, provides high levels of cover for not just medical issues, but also trip cancellation and incidental complexities like luggage delay for trips as long as 90 days.

Seven Corners Travel Insurance: What is RoundTrip Elite Travel Insurance?

RoundTrip Elite is an all-encompassing travel cover, providing ways to protect your investment in an upcoming trip, ways to protect your health during it, and ways to protect your belongings throughout your travels. Whether you’re traveling alone, with your spouse, or with your entire family, RoundTrip Elite provides plenty of just-in-case benefits.

Trip cancellation coverage provides security for 100% of the trip cost, up to $30,000.  Trip interruption increases this benefit to 150% of the trip cost, and trip delay or missed cruise/connection cover are $1,500 each under this plan.  Meanwhile, emergency medical expenses are covered up to $250,000 (including $750 for repair to a dental injury) and up to $1,000,000 in emergency medical evacuation or repatriation cover.

Baggage protection for lost, stolen, or damaged personal property is set at $2,500 under this plan, as is $600 for baggage delay. Additional protections include $25,000 for 24-hour AD&D and $25,000 for common carrier AD&D, 24/7 travel insurance, a pre-existing condition waiver, and several optional benefits for even higher levels of cover.

Seven Corners Travel Insurance Review: What’s Missing From RoundTrip Elite Travel Medical Insurance?

There are few limitations. However, we note that a Pre-Existing Medical Condition Exclusion Waiver will only be issued if all non-refundable prepaid costs are insured. There are a few policies from other carriers that do not require the full trip costs to be insured so as to provide a Medical Waiver, but the majority, like Seven Corners, do require full cover to be in place.

Cover for job termination and layoff is included in the plan. However, in the event that a previously approved work vacation period is rescinded, there is no cover. Such cover is available as an optional extra, as is Cancel for Any Reason, and Rental Car Cover.

In addition to these limitations, RoundTrip Elite does not cover trips made to Cuba, the Syrian Arab Republic, or the Islamic Republic of Iran.

We think that the Seven Corners RoundTrip Elite Travel Insurance plan strikes a good balance between sensible cover for a discerning traveler, and needless additional cover which would simply add expense. The majority of customers who will find the Elite policy useful will be retired travelers taking longer, more expensive trips. We think the policy is very well suited to this particular travel group.
