Are you prepared for travel “Uh Oh?”

That’s the value of a travel protection membership. You have a team of medical and security experts behind you, no matter where you are in the world. Injured in a skiing accident at 12,000 feet in the mountains of Switzerland, like Martin? Global Rescue’s medical personnel got him to safety fast. Passport stolen in Paris, like Maredith? Global Rescue turned a potential six-week bureaucratic nightmare into a replacement passport plan within hours. The cost to Global Rescue members? $0. No charge. No kidding.

Without Global Rescue, your travel emergency could take longer, cost more — and make a dangerous situation a lot worse.
