Dental insurance plans fall short.
They all have wait periods, a cap of $1,000 or $1500,( a root canal costs more than that), and the % paid out makes it a pretty poor deal.

In the USA dental network can be a better deal. Not insurance but a discount plan. Think COSTCO or membership cub where you pay a membership fee and get discounted goods.

You can check for dentists in your area who participate in these networks. Use this link and out in your zipcode…

Trip cancellation travel insurance is essential with today's travel issues. In April 2026, jet fuel shortages were announced which may result in airline pricing increases and flight cancellations. It is important to be familiar with the wording in your travel policy.

Regarding Jet Fuel Shortage, below are the position statements from three travel underwriters.

AmTrust Financial Services, Inc.

Travel Insurance underwritten by AmTrust Financial companies may include Trip Delay coverage for delay of a Common Carrier. Trip Delay benefits apply to and are not limited to pre-paid, unused, non-refundable accommodations and reasonable expenses incurred during a delay. Please read your policy's full coverage details for specific instructions on benefits, exclusions, and filing a claim if applicable.

Nationwide:
Travel Protection Plans that include travel insurance underwritten by Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company may provide benefits for delays caused by fuel shortages so you should review your plan document for possible benefits under Trip/Travel Delay. This may provide protection for losses resulting from Common Carrier delays, including cancellation or delay of flights due to insufficient fuel.

Crum:
Travel protection plans that include travel insurance underwritten by United States Fire Insurance Company may provide benefits that can be triggered by the jet fuel shortage due to global pricing increases. Coverage can vary by State, so you should review your plan document for possible benefits under Missed Connection and Trip Delay as these coverages may provide protection for losses resulting from this event in certain circumstances.

Travel insurance is an important part of travel these days with more frequent delays and cancellations.

Reasons to insure:
-Financial reimbursement if you have to cancel or interrupt your trip due to a covered illness, injury, jury duty, and more
-Emergency medical benefits in and outside the U.S. – where many personal health insurance policies (like Medicare) won’t cover you
-24-hour emergency assistance to help you solve medical and other travel-related problems on the go.
