In case of trip interruption, the plan can provide compensation for the extra cost of transportation to return home or join your travel group.The plan also includes coverage for other sensible additional expenses that you might incur, such as lodging, meals, and local transportation if you are delayed for six hours or more due to a covered reason during your trip.WHAT IF I NEED TO MOVE MY TRIP TO ANOTHER DATE?If you have to change your trip dates after the 10-day free look, you can transfer the existing plan by calling CSA at 800-834-8438.
