Risks are inevitable, especially during times of tragedy. And, when insurance was created in 1347, its main purpose was to eliminate risks, which remains true today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There’s no secret really. When we do almost anything, we plan for the unexpected and make sure we’re covered, especially when we’re traveling. And, now that the pandemic is still going, there are many good reasons for travel insurance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, after booking your flight, make sure to have travel insurance if traveling overseas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Medical Emergencies<\/strong>: Your travel insurance provides financial coverage if you fall sick or are injured during your travel. Be sure to check the fine print and the details of the coverage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Flight Cancellations<\/strong>: Call your insurance company for help if your flight is canceled or delayed. Depending on the cover available, a room for the night and even an alternative travel home can be included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pre-existing Medical Conditions<\/strong>: Even if you have a pre-existing medical condition and it flares up while you’re on vacation, as long as you’ve advised your travel insurance company prior, you should be covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Damage or Loss Of Personal property<\/strong>: What are you going to do if your luggage is lost or gets stolen? Yes, it happens, all the time. Guess what? You need travel insurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Loss of Cash or Traveller’s Cheques<\/strong>: You’re in a foreign country far from home. You either lose or have stolen, your entire holiday fund. You’re going to need help and quick. Again, travel insurance is a must.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Emergency Evacuations<\/strong>: Emergencies can pop up at any time and any place. Your travel insurance will help you evacuated if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Car Crash<\/strong>: It can be very difficult driving on the wrong side of the road in a strange country. Accidents happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While these are good and valid reasons for having travel insurance, I want to clarify several of things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Also Read: Travel Planning Tips & Tools<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nQuick tips:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
