    Instant travel insurance may help you recover the money you spent on those new vacation clothes & even pay for some quick essentials to enjoy on your trip.

    Booking a same or next day flight to rush back home to the USA to attend to a family emergency can be up to 3X the normal price without instant travel insurance.
