Travel Insurance Tips For Snowbirds

Travel Insurance Tips For Snowbirds
Are you planning on leaving the country for a little rest and relaxation down south this winter? If so, you’re not alone; many retired Canadians flock to warmer abodes, leaving the snow and wintry weather behind. However, newbie snowbirds will find it’s more complex than just getting up and going. In fact, there are quite a few things you should do in preparation for your winter vacation. Here’s what you need to check off before taking flight.
Do You Need A Travel Visa?
If you’re a Canadian heading south to the U.S., you can stay there for six months without a travel visa, even if you own U.S. property. Rules vary greatly from country to country though, so be sure to check out visa requirements if you intend to stay abroad.
Cover Your Car
If you’re driving down, at a minimum, you’ll want to take your car in for a tune up and ensure it’s up to the cross-border journey. It’s also very important to check in with your car insurance provider – you may be required to pay a supplemental premium for your trip…

Limited Time: RBC British Airways Visa Infinite Sign Up Bonus increased to 45,000 AviosI said back in August that September would be big for changes and/or increased offerings in the ever competitive travel rewards credit card market in Canada and last week was a witness of that and this week the trend continues. The latest card to offer an increased bonus is the RBC British Airways Visa Infinite card.  The bonus is not as big as the 50,000 Avios seen last fall but that is because they have added a different perk this time. Normally the card only carries a 15,000 Avios bonus for being approved for the card but now you’ll get that bonus plus 30,000 more Avios if you spend $3,000 in each of month of your first three months of cardmembership ($9,000 spend total). To take advantage of this increased bonus you must apply for the card by Nov 30, 13. You can do so here. If you are seriously considering this card I would apply for it sooner than later so that you can make the most of the additional perk being offered with the card.The additional perk this time to make up for the 5,000 Avios difference in the sign bonus from last fall to this fall is that RBC will award you with 2x Avios when you make grocery store and gasoline purchases with your card:Starting with transactions posted to your October 2013 monthly statement and up to your December 2013 monthly statement, you will earn double the Avios you normally earn for every $1 in purchases when you use your RBC British Airways Visa Infinite card to pay for purchases made at merchants classified by Visa’s “Merchant Category Codes” as “grocery stores and supermarkets” (MCC 5411), “Service Stations” (MCC 5541) and “Automated Fuel Dispensers” (MCC 5542)…
