Extreme Sports and Vacations


It’s May already! Yes, that means that it’s time to plan for summer vacations. This month we’ll help you learn more about travel insurance. Vacations are a great time to try new things – you’re in a new place, with new people. Many people try extreme sports and high-risk activities during their summer vacations – think skydiving or para-sailing. However, it is important to note that many insurance policies do not cover injuries caused by extreme sports.

If you are planning on a high-risk holiday activity, you’re best bet is to check it out with your policy and see if you will be covered. You may have read about the Canadian who visited America and unfortunately met in a skydiving accident with her parachute collapsing, causing her to fall from the sky and suffering a collapsed lung, broken pelvis, eye socket and brain swelling. She ended up with a $500,00 medical bill  - which was uncovered.

We can help find a plan that will cover your high-risk activities if you need, call us at (416) 909-0400 and we’ll help plan for you!
