What to look for when choosing travel insurance
The most important item in travel insurance is the health cover limit. Hospital costs can be very high in many countries, so you need a policy with sufficient limit. Depending on your destination, for example the USA and Canada where treatment costs are high, a higher limit is preferred.
Schengen visa applications require minimum cover and scope; the policy must cover the entire trip and all countries visited. We check the cover limits needed for your visa.
If you plan skiing, diving or other risky activities, it is important to find out whether they are covered. Extras such as baggage, flight cancellation and personal accident cover also make your trip more secure.
