Trip Protection
What is Trip Protection insurance?

Trip Protection is an affordable insurance program that Hotwire offers through a partner provider, Access America. The program is a combination of travel insurance benefits and emergency hotline services. Depending on the insurance program selected, your Trip Insurance may provide coverage for trip cancellation, trip interruption, emergency medical and dental, emergency medical transportation, baggage loss, baggage delay, and/or travel delay. Please note that Trip Protection does not cover you for change of plans due to non-emergency situations.

Hotwire booking rates do not include the insurance fee. You may choose Trip Protection during the checkout process, or you can decide later and add coverage up until your departure. Learn more about Access America and Trip Protection.
