Why Purchase travel insurance?
Travel insurance not only protects your vacation investment, but it also protect you, your party, and even your belongings.
According to the U.S. Travel Insurance Association, about 30 percent of Americans purchase travel insurance, an increase from 10% before 9/11. This is . The top three reasons for buying travel insurance are peace of mind, protection against the unexpected and concern over losing the financial investment of a trip.
Travel insurance can also protect you and your party during your travels. If you develop a medical condition, suffer injury, or if political unrest in a foreign country causes a change of plans, your insurance will cover your additional expenses (as most regular health insurance plans are not accepted outside of the United States). Some travel insurance plans will even cover loss or damage to your belongings while travelling. Most plans even cover medical, legal, and concierge services at no additional charge.
Travel insurance it completely optional, and not everyone opts to use it, but I would personally never travel without it.
