Traveling again after Corona: check your travel insurance!

In recent years, because of Corona, our vacations have looked quite different. For example, travel destinations were quite different. Far away trips were exchanged for vacations at home, and sometimes vacations were replaced by days out. Nowadays we are allowed to travel freely again and go all over the world. Sometimes even further than ever, because we want to make up for "lost vacations.

Travel insurance is essential

Fortunately, many travelers understand that travel insurance is essential in this regard. In emergencies, good coverage for such things as hospital expenses, or being able to call in an emergency center is a must. What is often forgotten is that the coverage you need must be appropriate to the situation at hand. During Corona, many continuous travel insurance policies were cancelled, and some policies were last reviewed before Corona. It is therefore important to check well before departure to make sure everything is still correct, for example:

• Do I still have travel insurance?
• Is the coverage correct for region (Europe, world, Netherlands)?
• Are all accompanying family members registered?
• Is there a maximum age for children traveling with you?
• Am I going to play special sports?
• Is there additional coverage for care abroad?
• How many electronics do we take with us?

No more travel insurance?

Travel insurance gives you help if something unpleasant happens while traveling. Think of car trouble, stolen luggage or a travel companion ending up in the hospital. These kinds of unpleasant situations cause extra costs. Travel insurance offers a solution and reimburses these extra costs.

With continuous travel insurance, you are insured throughout the year in case of damage or theft while traveling. So you can enjoy your vacations or weekends away without any worries. You put the insurance together yourself and can choose from different coverages, such as accident, medical expenses, winter sports, roadside assistance and legal assistance.
