Question 1

What is the TRAVEL GUARD* charge on my bank statement?

Accepted Answer

The TRAVEL GUARD* charge on your statement is a payment for a travel insurance plan purchased through Travel Guard, which is operated by AIG (American International Group). Travel Guard offers coverage for trip cancellations, medical emergencies, lost luggage, and other travel-related incidents. You likely purchased this plan when booking a flight, hotel, or vacation package, as Travel Guard is commonly offered as an add-on during the checkout process on many travel booking sites.

Question 2

Why does the TRAVEL GUARD* amount look different from what I expected to pay?

Accepted Answer

Travel Guard by AIG prices their travel insurance plans based on variable factors such as the total cost of your trip, the ages of the travelers being covered, the destination, and the level of coverage selected. This means there is no single fixed charge amount, and your specific premium will differ from someone else's plan. To review the exact details of what you were charged and what coverage you received, you can log into your account or contact Travel Guard directly at travelguard.com/help-center/contact-us.

Question 3

I don't remember buying travel insurance — how do I find out if this TRAVEL GUARD* charge is valid?

Accepted Answer

Travel Guard by AIG plans are frequently offered as optional add-ons during the booking process for flights, hotels, or vacation packages, and many travelers accidentally opt in or do not notice they selected coverage. Check any confirmation emails from your recent travel bookings for a mention of Travel Guard or AIG travel insurance. If you still cannot verify the charge, reach out to Travel Guard directly through their contact page at travelguard.com/help-center/contact-us and they can look up any active policies associated with your name or payment information.

Question 4

How do I cancel my Travel Guard insurance plan and stop future charges?

Accepted Answer

To cancel your Travel Guard by AIG travel insurance plan, visit their contact page at travelguard.com/help-center/contact-us where you can reach their customer service team by phone or online form. Travel Guard typically offers a free look period after purchase during which you can cancel for a full refund, provided you have not yet filed a claim. Since the charge amount is variable and tied to your specific policy, make sure to have your policy number or booking confirmation handy when you contact them to ensure the correct plan is cancelled.
