Medical Expenses – Pays for doctor or hospital visits abroad

When you have an accident overseas, medical expenses can be very high especially in countries like the US. Travel insurance will pay for your doctor visit and hospital costs, so that you do not have to worry about money and focus on your health.

Flight Delays / Cancellation – Pays for the extra cost to wait for your new flight

Have you experience a flight delay before? They happen more often than you think and when it happens it means extra cost for you. You might need to buy more food at the airport, because of the longer stay. Or you might have to arrange for new pick-up at your destination airport. Bottom line, long flight delays cost you more money and insurance will help you pay for it.

Baggage Delay – Get extra money when you luggage is delayed

Have you waited long at the baggage claim to collect your luggage and then found out that your luggage is not there? What did you do without your change of clothes? Travel insurance will pay you back the extra money you spend for the delay, so that you can buy essential things to start your holiday without delay.

Lost bags and belongings – Pays for when you get robbed or lose your personal belongings

When your bags are lost or stolen during travel, you are left without clothes to wear and might need to cancel your trip and fly back home. With travel insurance you can continue to enjoy your vacation, because your insurance will pay you back the money you spend on you clothes. Your instant bad experience of a stolen bag, can turn into a fun shopping trip with all new clothes from a different country.

Just make sure that you report your lost/stolen bags to the local police and that you keep all receipts. The insurance company will want to see what you bought.

Person Accident – Pays money to your family or parents when you have an accident

When something really bad happens and you have an accident during your trip in which you die or are permanently disabled, then your family and parents will get a lump sump from the insurance company. It is like a smaller and cheaper life insurance for your vacation.
