Why do travel agents need insurance?

Your clients are looking to relax and recharge, which means a low tolerance for hassles. Travel agent insurance can cover expenses related to a lawsuit from a cancelled reservation, an injury at your office, a data breach that exposes client information, and other costly incidents.
