Why we like it:
WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND the GeoBlue Voyager Choice and the GeoBlue Voyager Essential because they include travel insurance terrorism cover included. They also have a great network of providers worldwide as part of the BlueCross BlueShield network.
They cover acts of terrorism and do not restrict illnesses or injuries resulting from a terrorist act. Both also feature stronger medical coverage with fewer exclusions than comparable travel insurance plans. For up to age 74 on Essential, or 84 on Choice Plan.
Voyager Choice also includes pre-existing conditions, but requires being insured by U.S. domestic health insurance. “Share plans,” Medicaid and V.A. health plans do not count as domestic health insurance. (Essential does not have this requirement.)
Note: For U.S. residents only traveling 6 months or less. You can only purchase GeoBlue Voyager prior to departing on your trip.
Good for:
- People traveling to high-risk countries
- Travel to hot zones + covers illnesses or injuries resulting from a terrorist act
- Part of the Blue Cross Blue Shield global network
- Up to age 74 (or 84 on Choice) traveling up to 6 months
Highlights + Terrorism Insurance Coverage
Voyager Choice and Voyager Essential Plans Both Include:
Better Coverage
The Voyager plan is available to U.S. residents, age 74 or younger (84 or younger for the Choice plan), if they apply from the U.S.
These are non-renewable plans up to 180 days. In some states, this same plan is offered by HTH, but it is the same plan and same company.

More about these two plans
Pre-exisiting Condition Coverage
Pre-existing Condition means a medical condition for which medical advice, diagnosis, care, or treatment was recommended or received during the 6 months (0 months for the GeoBlue Voyager Choice plan) immediately preceding the Insured Person’s Effective Date of Coverage.
Will my pre-existing condition be covered under a GeoBlue Voyager plan?
Pre-Existing Conditions
- Pre-existing medical conditions are treated differently depending upon the plan you have selected. The GeoBlue Voyager Choice plan is available to those who have primary insurance inside the U.S. and will cover medical treatments for pre-existing conditions. Please refer to the definition of a primary health plan for more specific information on what plans qualify as a primary insurance.
Under the GeoBlue Voyager Essentials plan, benefits are not available for any services received on or within 6 months after the Eligibility Date of an Insured Person. If those services are related to a Pre-existing Condition as defined in the Definitions section of the Plan Description. This exclusion does not apply to a Newborn that is enrolled within 31 days of birth or a newly adopted child that is enrolled within 31 days from either the date of placement of the child in the home, or the date of the final decree of adoption.
The pre-existing conditions exclusion under GeoBlue Voyager Essential does not apply to the Emergency Medical Transportation benefit, Repatriation Of Mortal Remains benefit, or the Emergency Family Travel Arrangements benefit. GeoBlue Voyager Essential does not require that insureds have primary insurance at the time of enrollment.
