Travelling itself carries a lot of risks, especially during the current pandemic times. There is the risk of missing a flight due to various reasons, any accidents or damages that could occur to you or your personal belongings while in transit etc.

There is always some unprecedented risk that could be lurking which cannot be taken into account or be prevented beforehand. This is where travel insurance comes into the picture. By purchasing adequate insurance coverage beforehand, you can protect yourself in case any such predicaments occur and alleviate the burden of having to pay in time, money and effort.

If you are abroad and you require immediate medical assistance due to any injuries, without insurance you would have to pay close to $200,000 or more in hospital bills, depending on the country you’re in and the proximity to the nearest hospital. During the pandemic, the public suffered immensely in regard to ticket cancellation as the world shut down and many lost millions as they were not eligible for a refund. With adequate travel coverage, even if you need to cancel your trip, you do not have to fear as your insurance will reimburse you for the unused hotel cost and travel tickets.

These kinds of scenarios, however unlikely, are still probable and spending in regard to insurance coverage should be encouraged so that you will not be subjected to bigger expenditures later.
