How to keep bad weather from ruining your vacation
Travel Tips from NWA WorldVacations & Worry-Free Vacations
Thunderstorms on one coast might cause an inconvenient delay to your flight on the other coast, but that's a minor problem next to losing an entire vacation to a hurricane.You've worked hard for your vacation.
Follow some of these tips to ensure you can enjoy your vacation.
• Every destination has a season when the weather is unpredictable or less than ideal. Find out when that is before you book your vacation. For North America, hurricane season is late summer and fall. Other warm destinations have "rainy" seasons during the North American winter. If the best time for you to vacation is during a rainy or hurricane season, choose a destination that isn't usually affected.
• Some resorts offer guarantees specifically related to hurricanes, which means something different at every resort, but generally covers you if a hurricane hits while you're at the resort. You would most likely get a replacement vacation within a year.
• Buy travel insurance - If you're spending thousands on a week-long getaway, a hundred more (usually less) isn't much for some peace of mind. You can buy travel insurance from your travel agent, or from a company. NWA WorldVacations offers travel insurance. It's very important to make sure the policy you buy is underwritten by a third party. Check out the helpful links below for more information on travel protection.
• Get advice from a travel agent - You might have your heart set on a September wedding in Jamaica, but a travel agent can help you decide if that's really your best choice. A travel agent can help you with arrangements in case of a weather emergency and more. It may be confusing to know whom to call when a storm is bearing down on your destination and the airline has cancelled flights. A travel agent can also be your advocate in the event of a complicated rescheduling situation.
