Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum trip length covered by the Explorer OnTrip Travel Protection Plan?

 

The Explorer OnTrip Travel Protection Plan provides coverage for trips lasting up to 180 days. This duration can accommodate travelers such as individuals on temporary work assignments or those planning extended stays in one or more destinations. When purchasing the travel protection plan, it is important to enter the correct travel dates so that coverage applies for the entire trip period.

Does it cover pre-existing medical conditions?

 

The travel protection plan includes a 60-day pre-existing condition lookback period. Coverage for pre-existing medical conditions may be available if eligibility requirements are met. Travelers should review their travel protection plan documents to confirm whether this waiver is included and to determine eligibility based on travel timing and medical status.

Is there an age limit to purchase the Explorer OnTrip Travel Protection Plan?

 

The Explorer OnTrip Travel Protection Plan is available to travelers up to age 99 years. This makes it a suitable option for older travelers who want access to emergency medical coverage, evacuation benefits, and travel assistance services while traveling, without the need for trip cancellation coverage.

Can I extend my coverage if my trip gets longer?

 

In some cases, travelers may request an extension if a trip lasts longer than originally planned. Approval depends on several factors, including the traveler’s state of residence, how much time remains on the current plan, and whether any claims have been filed. To explore extension options, contact AXA's customer service team before the travel protection plan expiration date or scheduled return date.

How do I file a claim if something happens during my trip?

 

If you experience a covered event, such as a medical emergency or trip interruption, you can file a claim by visiting AXA’s claims portal or calling the customer support line. You may be asked to provide supporting documents such as medical records, receipts, or airline reports, depending on the type of claim. Filing promptly with complete documentation can assist in the review of your claim, which will be evaluated based on the terms and conditions of your travel protection plan.
