Travel Insurance has come a long way since April of 1864 when James Batterson, founder of The Travelers Insurance Company, accepted a $.02 premium for the first travel insurance policy sold in the United States. As mentioned by the United States Travel Insurance Association(UStiA) the US market for travel insurance was over $1 billion dollars last year.

One billion is an amazing number for coverages that started off a 141 years ago as $.02. At this level it pays to be a smart consumer and to shop around. There are plenty of options out there. One size does not fit all. Shop around and find the one that is best for you and for your trip. The best place to shop is with us at www. QuoteWright.com.
