Travel Insurance: How To Save Money And What You Need To Know | Money Mind | Travel 

My late grandmother got hemorrhagic stroke when she traveled to south africa back in 2008. Thankfully, my auntie bought travel insurance for my grandmother. The insurance covered her medical expenses for 2 months in south africa + medivac back to SG + 1 more month hospital stay in sg + medivac back to Indonesia. She survived liver cancer 6 years later but died 2017 due lung cancer.

If you're engaging in any major physical activity (like skiing), it's a no brainer for travel insurance

So crazy , dare to travel without travel insurance ! Travel insurance is the 3rd item to buy , after booking flights and hotels . The only time I don’t buy travel insurance is when I travel to JB , other parts of Malaysia also must buy .

I agree, medical costs of mere first few thousand in a foreign country is considered very low.

Read the FINE PRINT!!! You'll be surprised some incidents insurance do not cover. (1) Arrived back in SG but luggage was delayed for more than 48 hours. Insurance company said if you're on home ground, it's not covered. (2) Most high risk activities (eg skiing) are not covered by basic plan. (3) If you're worried about a certain scenario, call the insurance company and have them explain to you. I was surprised the insurance company do not cover extra expenses to change air ticket to return home early, if you are sick or injured during the trip.

Wow... $3000 for dislocated shoulder and xray and of that extra bits is practically a deal in US O__O...

I always buy travel insurance whenever I travel overseas. So far, I have not made any claim for a medical emergency. I will still buy cos I am worried if sth bad happens, I will need to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars.

When we buy air ticket using our credit card, it comes with Travel Insurance Coverage. So, I still confuse if we need to separately buy another travel insurance.

Need some help! we’re planning a one time trip for the first time, and might buy flight tickets from expedia so I really wanted to know if we should buy the $45 flight insurance that they are offering for this trip? It would mean a lot to get some help. Thanks

good morning

Japan's taxi fare is ridiculously expensive...

Lol there is google translate rather than ‘Hospital’ 😂

Those from the opposition parties in s'pore are most capable of lying and deceiving, as evident in the numerous pofmas issued to them.
