2024 Western Canada, US & Europe Trips

Note that if you are signing up for an charter trip this season, you need to take personal responsibility to keep informed of Canadian and local destination public health testing and documentation requirements. Any required testing is at member cost and is incremental to the listed price of the trip. Members are responsible to arrange for any trip cancellation and medical insurance and need to ensure they understand the specific exclusions of their policies.

As always, travel insurance is STRONGLY recommended for all trips. For charter trips, you can purchase from the tour operator a travel insurance policy covering cancellation due to medical conditions, and covering medical expenses while you are away. You can also add on to this policy, "Cancel For Any Reason" insurance (CFAR) which allows you to cancel at any time, or for any reason. CFAR is available on all trips for an added fee as specified in the descriptions.

For a bit of added coverage for Peisey-Vallandry and Charlevoix, the trip price includes Club Med basic hospital/medical insurance which is “emergency out-of-country medical insurance”. Trip cancellation before departure is not covered by Club Med insurance, nor are trip interruption costs due to COVID covered. This insurance is included with the booking for all guests staying at a Club Med Village. For specific details you may request a detailed insurance policy outlining specifics of coverage pdf. 

For air travel, it is each member's individual responsibility to check all travel documents and airline carrier for departure information. Every member is advised to consult the airline's website and the country of destination website at least 2 weeks in advance of departure, and regularly thereafter until departure, for any public health related regulations that may impact the member's ability to board the flight and successfully enter the country.

Here is what you will get on every charter trip except as noted in the description:
