Travel Insurance

We highly recommend that all our clients secure comprehensive travel insurance prior to their trip. While no one anticipates having to cancel or cut short their travel plans, unforeseen circumstances can occasionally disrupt even the best-laid plans. When contemplating the need for travel insurance, it’s crucial to recognise the potential financial consequences, not only for your trip expenses, but also for any medical or health-related emergencies abroad.

Your Travel Insurance should cover the whole time you are away and include a minimum of the following cover...

CANCELLATION OR CURTAILMENT COVER

A number of situations may cause you to call off your trip or cut it short. This may be for a number of reasons including the following:

  • Injury or illness of insured, travel companion, family member, or business partner
  • Hurricane or natural disaster strikes destination
  • Terrorism or mandatory evacuation at destination
  • Home or business damaged, vandalised, or burglarised
  • An epidemic or pandemic disease
  • Jury duty or military redeployment
  • Required to work, terminated, or transferred
  • Victim of felonious assault prior to trip
  • Traffic accident prior to trip
  • Theft of passport or visa prior to trip
 
 
MEDICAL AND HEALTH COVER

Medical and Health Cover for an injury or sudden illness abroad, 24 hour emergency service and assistance, personal liability cover in case you are sued for causing injury or damaging property, lost and stolen possessions cover, extra cover for hazardous activities that are commonly excluded from standard policies.

 
LUGGAGE COVER

Reimbursement for lost, stolen or damaged luggage and belongings throughout your trip along with travel assistance to replace lost or stolen prescriptions, passports, visas or other important travel documents.

 

DELAYS COVER

Coverage for trip delay and baggage delay, providing reimbursement for unplanned hotel expenses, meals, clothing and transportation costs.

Important

Always ensure that your policy refunds the full cost of your holiday and that your policy includes ‘Cancel-For-Any-Reason’ cover. It must pay out if you need to cancel or cut short a trip. Your policy should also cover any pre-paid expenses such as excursions, golf, dinners. Also, it is common practice for insurance providers to only accept applications within a few days of making a reservation and paying the deposit for a schedule. It is therefore recommended that insurance should be taken early in the booking process.

Travel insurance should be obtained in your primary country of residence.
