**TRAVEL INSURANCE**
Plan for the unexpected by protecting your vacation investment with travel insurance. Health issues, a family event, work demands, or natural causes such as a weather event preventing travel are just some of the reasons which might cause one to cancel.
Schooner Heritage does not bank payments or roll over payments from year to year. Payments made for the year of trip reserved will not be applied to a trip rescheduled to the following year. We are happy to reschedule within the current sailing season if possible, but reservations will not be transferred from one year to the next.
We strongly encourage our guests to consider purchasing travel insurance to protect your vacation investment. Most companies offer a free quote online. There are benefits to purchasing it within 14 calendar days of making your initial payment toward your windjammer trip. Several companies offer coverage.
