Going Overseas? Do You Need Travel Insurance?
Traveling overseas can be exciting, but it's important to consider whether you need travel insurance. While you might be covered by existing insurance policies, it's crucial to verify your coverage before you go.
What Travel Insurance Covers
Travel insurance can provide coverage for trip cancellations or interruptions, unforeseen medical emergencies, theft or loss of luggage, and other unexpected events during your trip. However, before purchasing a travel insurance plan, examine the details carefully and read the fine print. Review any agreements with your travel agent, tour operator, airline, or other service providers involved in your travel.
When You Might Not Need Travel Insurance
If you have a fully refundable airline ticket, you might not need trip cancellation or interruption insurance. Also, check if your homeowners or renters insurance policy covers luggage loss or theft.
Situations Where Travel Insurance Is Beneficial
Travel insurance can be particularly useful in the following situations:
- Sudden illness or injury affecting you, a family member, or a travel companion.
- Financial insolvency of your airline, cruise line, or tour operator.
- Travel disruptions due to natural disasters or strikes.
- Terrorist incidents in your planned destination city within 10 days of arrival.
- Being quarantined, summoned by a court order, or required to serve on a jury.
- Involvement in an accident on the way to your departure.
Additional Coverage Sources
Certain credit cards offer additional travel insurance if you use them to purchase your tickets. Your health insurance might offer some coverage abroad, but be aware that Medicare/Medicaid does not cover international medical expenses.
Always confirm the extent of your coverage, and consider purchasing a travel insurance plan if your existing policies don't provide sufficient protection for your travels.
