E&O Insurance

Luxury Travel Network does not offer E&O Insurance. Why? There are only a couple of insurance companies that will cover “Independent Contractor Networks” as a blanket policy and the deductible per incident is usually $5,000! That is simply not the kind of coverage we want to market and offer our agents. If a competitor offers E&O coverage, ask them, "what is the deductible?" Luxury Travel Network supplies the necessary information you need to obtain E&O Insurance. The typical cost is about $350 annually and the deductible is usually $500 per incident.
