Before you set off to discover the world, or plan a getaway to an exotic country, it’s important to prepare your trip. You need to plan your itinerary, book your flights and hotels, make sure your passport is up to date, get the right visa and, of course, the right travel insurance for the country you’re visiting. Here are a few good reasons why you should make up your mind quickly.
Cancellation, repatriation and health
Taking out travel insurance can be a vital help in unforeseen situations. Most of the time, the price of a plane ticket is high. If you ever have to cancel your flight, you’ll benefit from a cancellation guarantee.
If you fall ill, travel insurance can cover your healthcare costs abroad, in the country of destination. Depending on the problem and the country you’re in, you can save a lot of money, or even go bankrupt in some countries, such as the USA, Singapore or Hong Kong, which charge very high rates.
You may also suffer an accident or illness requiring medical repatriation. Insurance can help alleviate further out-of-pocket expenses.
Theft, third-party liability and unforeseen events
If your trip is lost or stolen, your insurance will be your guarantee. This can happen during the journey, since most of your belongings will be entrusted to the carriers. The same applies in the event of theft. Your insurer will protect you against every eventuality during your departure.
Insurance can help you in the event that you are a little clumsy and cause damage to third parties. Your insurance will cover you against such negligence. You may also need to make an urgent return trip to your home in the event of death, for example, or other incidents that could affect your daily life.
