Is Availing Travel Insurance Important?

No! Travel insurance is not mandatory in all countries for tourists. A primary reason is the high cost of healthcare in foreign countries. Apart from that, you want to ensure that your finances are protected from unforeseen situations that can arise during your travels, don’t you?

You can avail yourself of several benefits of travel insurance policies. Some of them are:

  • Coverage for Medical Emergencies - During your trip, you might require emergency medical assistance – either accidental or illness-related. Travel insurance can cover your costs during such cases.
  • Trip Cancellation or Flight Delays - A flight delay, missed connection or all-over trip cancellation are some unforeseen instances covered under a travel insurance policy.
  • Delay/Loss of Belongings - In situations where your checked-in baggage got delayed, or you’ve lost your wallet, travel documents, etc., your travel insurance policy can provide monetary compensation for the same.
  • Cover for Extended or Abandoned Trip - In the event of strikes, riots, natural disasters and other events, the duration of your trip can get hampered. Don’t worry about the expenses because your travel insurance covers for a cancelled or extended trip.
  • Bounced Bookings - Have you ever finalised all your accommodation and event bookings only to reach there and find out that the hotel is overbooked, and your booking has bounced? In such frustrating situations, travel insurance with bounced bookings cover can save the day!

 

So, if you want to make your trip safer and ensure financial protection, it is best to purchase a travel insurance plan at the very onset! There are many plans available in the market, so you should compare travel insurance plans to get the best benefits at an affordable cost.

Note: Visa requirements keep changing for every country. Please make sure you check all the passport and visa requirements on the official website of the country before making any travel bookings.
