You might think, “I don’t need extra travel insurance because my credit card covers it.” But most credit card insurance offers limited coverage for medical expenses and lost or damaged luggage. With the declining rand value, overseas medical treatment and evacuation can be very expensive. That’s why it’s important to have comprehensive travel insurance cover.

    Travel Insurance

    What does travel insurance typically cover?

    Travel insurance typically covers trip cancellations, medical emergencies, emergency evacuations, lost or delayed luggage, travel delays, and sometimes trip interruptions.

    What is not covered by travel insurance that travelers often assume will be covered?

    Travel insurance usually does not cover pre-existing medical conditions unless specified in the policy. It also typically excludes losses due to high-risk activities such as extreme sports unless an additional coverage option is purchased.

    How does travel insurance handle medical emergencies abroad?

    Travel insurance covers medical expenses incurred due to illness or injury while traveling. This includes hospital stays, doctor visits, and sometimes medical evacuation back to your home country if necessary.

    Are there coverage limits for travel insurance?

    Yes, travel insurance policies have coverage limits, which specify the maximum amount the insurer will pay for different types of claims, such as medical expenses, trip cancellations, and lost luggage. It’s important to review these limits when purchasing a policy.

    Does travel insurance cover trip cancellations due to any reason?

    Standard travel insurance typically covers trip cancellations for specific reasons, such as illness, injury, or a death in the family. Some policies offer “Cancel for Any Reason” (CFAR) coverage at an additional cost, which allows cancellation for a wider range of reasons.

    How does travel insurance address natural disasters or extreme weather events?

    Travel insurance may cover trip cancellations, interruptions, or delays caused by natural disasters or extreme weather events, as long as the event is unforeseen and occurs after the policy is purchased.

    What is missed connection coverage in travel insurance?

    Missed connection coverage helps reimburse additional expenses incurred if you miss a connecting flight or other transportation due to reasons covered by the policy, such as a delay of your initial flight.

    Does travel insurance cover adventure or extreme sports?

    Standard travel insurance usually excludes high-risk activities like adventure or extreme sports. However, some insurers offer optional add-ons or separate policies that provide coverage for these activities.

    What is travel delay coverage and how does it work?

    Travel delay coverage reimburses additional expenses incurred due to a delay in your travel plans, such as meals, accommodations, and transportation. The delay must meet the policy’s minimum time requirement, usually a specified number of hours.

    How soon before my trip should I buy travel insurance?

    You must obtain travel insurance before starting your journey. It can be purchased up to 12 months in advance, but the trip cancellation benefit is only effective six months before your departure.

    Do I have to start and finish my trip in my country of residence?

    It is necessary, unless you are buying our Emigration product, but then you must be travelling from South Africa.

    I am going overseas for over a year. Will travel insurance cover me?

    365 days is the maximum period you can purchase cover for.

    Will travel insurance cover my local domestic travel?

    Local Travel Insurance cover is suited to South African residents travelling within South Africa.

    What is travel insurance and why is it important?

    Travel insurance provides financial protection against unexpected events that can occur while traveling, such as trip cancellations, medical emergencies, lost luggage, and travel delays. It is important because it helps mitigate the financial impact of these incidents.
