Yes, are you are covered by your travel insurance plan if there is a travel warning in the place you are going. The only time you would not be eligible for coverage is if you went to a country sanctioned by the US government and we were forbidden from helping you there. For more information on that, including a recent list of sanctioned countries, check out this Help Center article.

If the travel warning was due to civil unrest (for political or security reasons), we may be able to help you evacuate the region. Same with a natural disaster.
