? for all the experienced air travellers out there

[from Canada]

Hi, Im trying to budget for an upcoming trip to Disney (Feb 2002). Can anyone tell me how much I can expect to add to the airfare quote for taxes and anything else they charge you for?
Also, where is the best place to get travel medical and/or cancellation insurance? (We are CAA members).
TIA
Karen

I can only help you with the medical insurance question. I always get mine at CAA and I am not even a member. I find their rates much cheaper than anywhere else and the coverage if very good. I am sure you could get a better deal than I do since you are a member. They also have yearly coverage plan for CAA members. That is a good price. That may be worth it if you are leaving the country or even your province again this year.

Anyone else with thoughts?

I use the Canada3000 site to check airfares, since they will tell you the taxes (although they have changed their site around since I last visited).

As for travel medical insurance, you might check first if you already have some through an employer -- we didn't realize it was part of my husband's medical plan until we asked the benefits office directly.
