If I then cancel the card prior to my trip (to avoid the annual fee), am I still covered by the insurance policies of the card? ie) trip delay / interruption, etc.

Thanks!
One of the requirements for policy to be in effect is that the account is “active and in good standing”.

So obviously your coverage will be void. You’re not insuring the purchase of the trip - you’re insuring _the_ trip - and you won’t have a card when the trip is imminent.
