TORONTO, May 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- NFP, a leading property and casualty broker, benefits consultant, wealth manager, and retirement plan advisor, announced today it is extending its Personal Travel Insurance offering across Canada. NFP in Canada also announced it now has a national team of travel brokers and is partnering with leading travel insurance companies to provide insurance for all eligible clients*. This offering is available to Canadians traveling within Canada and abroad, as well as those visiting Canada from other countries.

There are multiple policy options available for travelers that protect them by covering associated travel costs should a trip get canceled, delayed or interrupted for a variety of reasons, including evacuation due to a medical emergency, reservation issues, rental car damage or loss, and stolen or damaged baggage. 

"Planning a trip always comes with a degree of uncertainty, causing travelers to worry about unforeseen events that can disrupt their travel," said Greg Dunn, managing director, Personal Risk at NFP in Canada. "NFP's travel insurance team provides Canadians with peace of mind for unexpected occurrences whenever and wherever they travel.
