Frequently Asked Questions

Why buy dive–travel insurance? Diving Insurance: Scuba diving, when practiced responsibly, is a safe sport. Nevertheless, in the unlikely event that something does go wrong, the cost of evacuation, emergency medical attention or hyperbaric chamber treatments may be substantial and will not be covered by most major health and travel insurance policies. Dive insurance provides divers with coverage for dive-accident related medical expenses. Travel Insurance: You can’t prevent the unexpected, but you can protect yourself from a financial burden by purchasing travel insurance. Travel insurance protects divers and travelers when an unexpected cancellation or trip interruption occurs

Why Diamond? The Diamond program is the only insurance package that offers both diving accident coverage and comprehensive travel protection in one single policy. Insurance under this program is PRIMARY and is provided by the world’s largest US based insurance company – Chartis Insurance.

What does “Primary” mean? “Primary insurance” means there is no middle-man.DiveAssure pays service providers directly (i.e. air ambulance, hospital, recompression chamber etc.) or reimburses you in full for payments made by you, regardless of any other insurance you may have which may or may not cover the incident..

DiveAssure programs are the only travel & diving accident programs that are primary. If you have a policy that is not primary insurance, processing your claim may take a long time, and you may be required to finance your own evacuation/medical bills, which can run tens of thousands dollars. Additionally, a diving related claim can have an effect on your personal health insurance record, which in turn can increase your premiums and deductibles

What level is right for me? Since programs can be upgraded, pick your trip protection level according to the cost of your next planned diving trip (transportation + accommodation per person). For example, if your next trip per person cost is $1700 for a live-aboard + $1250 airfare and transport, the right plan for you would be the Diamond $3000. If later this year you will be going on a more expensive trip, we would then suggest upgrading to a higher level of trip cancellation/interruption coverage.

What is considered a diving vacation? Our policy defines diving vacation as: A vacation spent outside your city of residence, in a diving resort or diving facility and/or specifically includes diving.

How long does it take to get covered? Minutes! Simply complete the online registration form, submit payment, and…you’re done! Coverage is immediate and a confirmation email will be sent to you upon registration.

What is the right time to register? It is highly recommended to renew your membership continuously so you are never without dive accident coverage. If you are looking to sign up in relation to an upcoming trip, the sooner you register, the sooner your vacation investment is protected. We recommend registering upon submitting the first payment for your diving vacation, or as soon as possible after.

What about tropical storms? Travel protection through DiveAssure’s Diamond membership will cover a member’s diving vacation investment if severe weather conditions directly affect his/her travel arrangements or accom¬mo¬dations. For example, if the member is forced to cancel a trip due to a hurricane, travel insurance with trip cancellation can provide a reimbursement for nonrefundable expenses, up to the limit of coverage purchased. If severe weather forces the evacuation of the member’s hotel or resort, the travel insurance can provide reimbursement for nonrefundable expenses, and additional travel expenses. For losses to be covered, membership must be purchased before a tropical storm is forecasted or predicted for the destination of the trip. Losses resulting from a storm that has been forecasted or predicted on or before the effective date of coverage are excluded. Claims will be evaluated on their own merits at the time of adjudication.
