What I would suggest is that you CALL Insure my Trip, which is a TTOL sponsor. They will explain it to you. ...and then make sure you tell them that you booked them because of TTOL, so we get the (small) commission.. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Smile.gif" alt="" />

Correct....this is from the "Insure my Trip" site: The providers will use a few pieces of personal information, other than the cost of your trip, to calculate the cost of a plan:
Age of the travelers Number of travelers Length of travel Type of coverage
The age of the travelers is considered one of the most important of the four factors. Typically, a traveler that is over the age of 65 can expected increased rates. If you are traveling with minors, you may be able to add them to the plan at no additional cost, or at a lower rate – depending on the travel insurance company.
The number of travelers and length of travel can often increase the rates on the plans. This is because with more variables, there is more risk attached to the plan. ...and most policies need to be purchased within 2-4 weeks after the trip is purchased (info from the same very informative website)

ProfLangue said: Well, it appears that I'm out of luck, then. I just checked: I purchased for all of us in November ... so, I evidently have missed the time frame! I just discovered that, because I purchased it with my AA card, that's one of their travel protection benefits. This, combined with no foreign transaction fees, may stop me from complaining about them.
