5 Reasons You Should Invest in Travel Insurance 

If you find yourself asking, “is travel insurance worth it?” then, consider the following: 

1. Medical Emergencies

If you get sick or injured during your vacation, travel insurance can help cover the costs of medical bills. This is especially helpful in the case of medical evacuation or repatriation. These costs can break your bank. Even the U.S. Department of State strongly recommends that travelers invest in evacuation coverage. 

2. Unexpected Trip Cancelations & Interruptions

If an emergency arises that causes you to cancel or your trip or leave early, the last thing you should worry about is losing all of the money you spent on it. In the event that something unexpected happens, having insurance can reimburse you for any nonrefundable trip costs. 

3. Lost Luggage Problems

Ah, there’s nothing like arriving at your travel destination to discover that your luggage was lost in the process. Having insurance can help with this too! They can cover the cost of replacement clothes, toiletries, and more. 

4. Flight Delays

If you’re a frequent traveler, chances are you have experienced frustrating flight delays. If you end up needing to stay somewhere overnight, expenses can rack up quickly. Travel insurance can help cover the cost of additional meals or hotel stays when necessary.

5. Travel Supplier Issues 

Whether it’s due to a collapsing economy, natural disaster, or otherwise, it’s possible that travel suppliers could file bankruptcy without notice. Travel insurance can help reimburse you should the need arise.
