Have you ever purchased travel insurance? If you have not, you are not alone. Most people never purchase travel insurance and many of those experience few difficulties as a result. But there are some instances where it is definitely in your best interest to purchase insurance to protect you when you travel. This type of insurance can cover lost luggage and valuables, injury and illness, car accidents, and cancelled or interrupted trips among other things. Choose your travel insurance carefully to meet the needs of you and your family.
Before you purchase insurance you will need to evaluate the overall expense of your trip. If you are just taking a quick trip that you found a great deal on, it may not be worth it for you to purchase travel insurance. On the other hand, if you are heading out for a month long trip to the Greek Isles, you should probably consider getting insurance. Think about how it would affect you in the pocketbook if something were to happen.
Many home owner, medical, and auto insurance policies cover travel to some extent or another so you may not need travel insurance for these areas. Your home owner insurance may cover the loss of valuables. Auto insurance often covers damage to rental cars, but you may have to get an endorsement if you are traveling out of the country. Health insurance policies vary greatly on coverage in different localities, so check with your provider for options before you get this additional coverage on travel insurance.
Purchase your travel insurance from an insurance company that is not affiliated with your travel provider. This way, if you lose your trip due to cancellation or bankruptcy of the travel company, you will still be able to get a refund.
If you have children you should take an extra look at insurance for your trip. Children may get sick, break bones, etc. and you will want to have protection.
Make sure that you have read the fine print on any policy before you sign. Every policy has different exclusions and limitations and you will need to be aware of them. If any of the exclusions concern you, you may want to look for another insurance provider or policy.
If you want to have a peace of mind while you travel free from worry about illness, lost luggage, and so on, you should definitely look into insuring your trip.
