What Is Travel Insurance and Why Buy Travel Insurance?

Travel health insurance especially plans to protect you and family from unexpected medical difficulty and much more in a foreign land. A Proper travel health insurance policy also covers expulsion expenses negligible to a medical emergency or flying back for treatment.

What is Travel Insurance?

Traveling without insurance can determine to be an expensive mistake. Once you decide on your travel plans, the most usual expenses that unexpectedly come to mind are the airfare, accommodation/lodging expenses, food, local traveling and sightseeing expenses. So, most of them believe that if they save sufficiently for these expenses to be taken care off, they will have a dream trip. But, even dreams can turn horrific. And one particular accidental expense can wreck on not only your budget but also on your dream trip. The amount that you would have saved by not buying travel insurance will be very small in comparison to that unexpected travel expense.

Travel insurance offers for any unexpected situation during traveling, like loss of baggage, cancellation or delay of flights and Travel medical insurance covers certain medical emergencies.

Why Buy Travel Insurance?

Consider the following Occurrence:

1) You have arranged a fortnight-long trip to India and at the airport, you see your baggage is missing. And, you know that you have kept some valuables or important items in the baggage. And, you want to buy your family and yourself new set of clothes and other accessories that will help you to manage the remaining part of a journey.

2) Assume you are skiing in the Alps and harm yourself badly enough to need emergency surgery and then be airlifted back home.

3) If you are ill or injured while outside your province or country some hospitals charge thousands of dollars a day, not including doctor’s fees or diagnostic services. Without an emergency hospital and medical insurance, you and your family would be responsible for these high expenses.

Who would reimburse for these expenses? Well, if you had taken travel insurance, it would have. But then if you required to save money on insurance, you sure have, but some other unexpected expenses have dug a bigger hole in your pocket!
