Insurance & TRIA

[Frank Benvin]

Just renewing my insurance in Canada. Insurance company mentions Terrorisom Risk Insurance act.
I can get liability insurance for act of terrorism for only double my regular liability cost. Is this somthing that is required when flying in the USA. I haven't been across the border since 9/11 because of the hassles involved.

No... This is a scam! You are not liable for what someone else does with your property if they have stolen it. So long as you were not negligent in securing your property in the first place.

Hello Frank,

My insurance company does not require nor do I believe there is such coverage in the USA.
