We are planning a month-long trip to the US and Canada and I'm finding it hard to compare travel insurance in terms of COVID. They all seem to have exclusions in the fine print. Does anyone have any recommendations? The highest cancellation cover I have found is $5,000 and the flights alone will cost us 20k.
You'll probably find they all have the same covid related cancelation caps. We went with Cover-More, in the past I've used Allianz as well. One thing we did do (several weeks ago) is each take out a policy, so that we were each covered by the cancelation cap rather than have a 5k cap between us.

Have a look at World Nomad’s Explorer option. That’s what we settled on for our upcoming US jaunt.
