There are many questions that come up during trip planning to Walt Disney World but one that I don’t see that often that people should consider is regarding travel insurance. Travel Insurance covers things like illness of family members and weather. It really should be a no brainer. I mean WDW is located in Central Florida and hurricane season stretches from June to November so if nothing else you should purchase the insurance if you are going in those months. More often than not though people opt-out of the insurance thinking it is a waste of money. I view insurance as something that offers piece of mind in the case that a natural disaster strikes or a family member falls ill. There are a few different ways to shop around for travel insurance if you are new to this: either purchase directly from WDW when you make your reservation or visit a site like insuremytrip.com which allows you to input the value of your trip and how much coverage you want. It then queries insurance agencies to give you a comprehensive listing of policies and prices. Travel insurance really is not that expensive and something you should consider purchasing for any trip - Disney or not.

BTW if you are heading to WDW in the next few days Tropical Storm Fay has formed south of Florida and is project to hit Tampa. Please plan accordingly and visit the National Hurricane Center to stay current.
