Seven Corners Urges Parents to Buy Travel Insurance for High School & College Graduates Who are Traveling Internationally This Summer

INDIANAPOLIS, IN -- May 27, 2008 -- Seven Corners, one of the industry's most experienced travel health insurance providers, encourages parents to purchase travel insurance for their recent high school and college graduates who will be traveling internationally this summer. For only $1.50 per day, parents can protect their children from a broad range of travel-related emergencies, crises and inconveniences.

"Accidents, medical emergencies, disease outbreaks, terrorist activity, natural disasters and airline cancellations are just a few unplanned events that can put your child in very real jeopardy," said Justin Tysdal, executive officer and co-founder of Seven Corners. "No matter how careful your young graduate is, one simple fact remains — anything can happen when you travel abroad."

Seven Corners offers comprehensive travel medical insurance starting at $1.50 per day. Policies can protect young travelers and their parents from the exorbitant expense of medical evacuations that can cost upwards of $100,000. This insurance also will often cover the cost to fly a parent to the child's location during a medical emergency and provide a medical assistant to accompany the traveler home. Other costs covered by travel medical insurance include: hospitalizations; surgeries and treatments; ambulance transportation; doctor and dentist visits; and prescriptions.

Because international laws are quite different from those that govern the United States, it is imperative that parents purchase comprehensive travel insurance for their high school andcollege graduates when they leave American soil. This includes coverage for legal expenses such as bail bonds; legal assistance and representation; and repatriation.

In addition, with recent problems plaguing the airline industry, the cost and uncertainty of international travel is at an all time high. By purchasing trip cancellation coverage, travelers are protected from inconveniences such as: flight delays; cancellations; airline bankruptcies; and lost luggage.

Travel insurance is not only an affordable way to protect a young traveler, but it also will make traveling internationally easier, safer and more enjoyable. Purchasing travel insurance from a top-rated company like Seven Corners provides additional benefits including access to 24-hour multilingual assistance; pre-trip information on country-specific health care, political and cultural issues; and connections to international legal and health care resources.
