Don't Let Hurricane Season 2009 Blow Your Vacation Plans Away

Protect Your Trips with Travel Insurance from InsureMyTrip.com

WARWICK, R.I., June 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Experts at NOAA's Climate Prediction
Center anticipate a near average 2009 Hurricane Season with a 70 percent
chance of nine to fourteen named storms and up to three major hurricanes,
Category 3 or higher. This forecast can't say however where or when these
storms will form, which land areas will be impacted or at what intensity.
That's why, as always, the best way to prepare for the June through November
hurricane season is to plan ahead.

"Now is the time to get a hurricane plan," advises Dennis Feltgen,
spokesperson for NOAA's National Hurricane Center in Miami, Florida. "The only
number that matters is the number one...the one storm that could hit you this
season. You need to prepare now, and not when the storm is bearing down on
you."

"For travelers, that plan should include insurance protection for all your
upcoming summer vacations, family cruises, and fall travels," adds Jim Grace,
President and CEO of InsureMyTrip.com, the premier online travel insurance
comparison site. "Travel insurance is a prudent investment that provides
peace-of-mind protection against severe weather. The key is to plan ahead and
purchase travel insurance before a tropical storm or hurricane is identified
as possibly affecting your itinerary."

"Equally as important, travelers should know that coverage for weather-related
trip cancellations and interruptions differ significantly by company and
plan," continues Grace. The coverage spectrum includes:

-- Weather Cancellation: when common carriers such as airlines and cruise
lines stop travel to a particular destination due to weather
-- Cancellation due to Hurricane Warning: cancellation of your trip if
your
destination is under a NOAA-issued hurricane warning
-- Destination made Uninhabitable: if your hotel, resort, or vacation
rental is devastated by a storm
-- Primary Residence made Uninhabitable: your own home sustains
destructive
storm damage

-- Cancel For Any Reason: an optional benefit that allows you to choose
whether or not to cancel.
