You can even purchase it at automated kiosks at select airports and there are web sites where you can purchase air travel insurance on line. Most credit card companies offer free travel insurance if you use your credit card to pay for the tickets. However, it normally only covers the cardholder only not all family members so be sure to ask them about it.
Remember to read the fine print and the policy thoroughly to ensure you fully understand it and that there are no surprises in the event that you do need to use it.
Having air travel insurance while on vacation will give you peace of mind in knowing that if something unexpected happens while you and your loved ones are away you will be covered.
