Trip Insurance?

in Infertility
Here is my first world problem: I am about to do a FET transfer next week, and my husband and I have been invited to Mexico for a week next month. If this FET doesn't work, we'd likely want to go immediately into another fresh IVF cycle, but my RE mentioned doing a shorter protocol than our first IVF cycle, meaning no BCP first, and it would mean we'd likely be monitoring during the week we're invited to Mexico. Has anyone ever used any trip insurance around IVF cycles? Do you know if infertility treatments are an exclusion from coverage? If not, does anyone have any companies they'd recommend?

Our story:
TTC since 4/13
Me: 35
Husband: 45 
Issues: Moderate MFI, tubal factor, fertilization problems
10/13 - we find out my husband has MFI, which has since been addressed and mostly remedied. Hate our RE. 
12/13 - finally find an RE we love.
1/14-5/14 - using Letrizole
6/14 - 1st IUI with Clomid, BFN
7/14 - 2nd IUI with Clomid,  BFN
7/14 - Insurance reverses decision and agrees to cover HSG, we learn I have tubal factor
11/14 - IVF #1 = BFN
1/15/15 - FET with our one frozen embryo scheduled.

    Thanks @NariaDreaming. I assume you're a travel agent? Do you know how much it generally costs? If you get a commission I'd be happy to book through you!

    I think it would be worth it. I know for our honeymoon (which cost around $11K) the trip insurance was around $400. We purchased through our travel agent though, so that's what I would recommend. Good luck and I hope the FET works!
