Travel insurance is essential. A couple of weeks ago I get a yearly insurance that covers the entire planet so I'd be prepared for any eventualitiescoolfadda wrote:Travel insurance is a must me-thinks.... small extra price to pay just in case ...
Hey Gwen - I was heartened to read this - and just googled info - and seemed that the price is reasonable enough ($7 per ticket if you buy the insurance at the time of purchase - $15 if later).musicmania wrote:I remember when I was booking for Las Vegas in 2010 there was an option to insure the tickets incase we couldn't make it. It was cheap enough and gave peace of mind incase something would have kept me away. Thankfully I was able to attend. As the concerts I'm hoping to go to are the end of November, beginning of December I will take the option to insure again. Better safe than sorry if we had a repeat of the big freeze!Christopher B wrote:I agree its a great idea to beat the scalpers and touts but no so good if you find that you can't go. I'm still nursing both the disappointment and financial loss of booking tickets for the Madison Square Garden concert on 23 October 2009 and being unable to attend. It seemed unfair that I couldn't even give them away.
With Event Ticket Protector℠ insurance, your financial loss may be covered if you can't attend an event for any of the below reasons which are subject to terms and exclusions in the policy:
Illness or Serious Injury – preventing you or an event companion from being able to use the event ticket, or if a family member is hospitalized or requires care by you
Involved in a Traffic Accident – which prevents you from getting to an event
Mechanical breakdown – if your car breaks down within 48 hours of the event
Airline Delay – if your plane or other Common Carrier is delayed (includes bad weather) while going to the event
Home or Business Issues – if your home or business is uninhabitable due to fire, flood, vandalism, burglary or natural disasters
Employer Termination – providing protection against a lay-off
Jury Duty – if you are required to serve on jury duty after having purchased an event ticket
Work Relocation – if you are relocated by your company over 100 miles from your home
Military Duty – if you are required to miss an event as a result of military orders
Death – if you, an event companion, or immediate family member passes away
What other reasons could there possibly be for missing a Leonard Cohen concert?!sturgess66 wrote: BUT - *sigh* - the coverage applied for "reasons" for cancelling is rather restrictive...
Did you buy a VIP package or a regular ticket?holydove wrote:Just thought this was worth mentioning: I just bought tickets for Montreal, & Evenko offered electronic tickets, so I selected that, & I was able to print out my tickets! I thought they were supposed to be only "will-call". . .
I think it must be. The only option I got on a regular ticket was Will Call.holydove wrote:Hi Marie,
I bought a VIP package - is that the reason I was able to print the tickets?
Thanks. I'll let AEG know.holydove wrote:I bought a VIP package - is that the reason I was able to print the tickets?
