Programs and Coverage
Q: Do I need to be a member of DiveAssure before buying a program?
A: Membership fees are included in the price of the programs. You become a member upon purchase.
Q: How do I create a DiveAssure account?
A: When registering to one of our membership plans, you will be asked for an email address and a password. At the end of the process your account will be automatically created and you will receive a welcome email with your login details.
Q: How are DiveAssure’s travel programs different?
A: As opposed to other travel insurance programs, our dive-travel programs include full diving accident medical coverage and other unique benefits for divers such as lost diving days and our exclusive Liveaboard Rider. Divers not carrying a separate diving accident program will still benefit from full coverage with our dive-travel programs. Please note that our travel insurance plans will only cover you while diving and traveling outside your country of residence.
Q: Single Trip vs Multi Trip: Which start date should I choose?
A: For single trip coverage choose the exact dates of your trip when you plan to leave home and when you plan to return.
For Multi-trip coverage choose the date you want your cancellation coverage to kick in, regardless of your departure date. If you choose a future start date you will not be covered for cancellation up until that date. Choose carefully!

A: DiveAssure has no depth limits (as long as standards and protocols are followed and the diver is certified accordingly). Diving to a depth past your certification level will not be covered.
