Why Travel Insurance ?
Vehicle insurance or motor insurance is meant for cars, two-wheelers and other road vehicles. A motor package policy protects the insured vehicle against the damages caused due to accidents and natural disasters. In addition to vehicle damage, motor vehicle insurance provides mandatory coverage for third-party liabilities. Comprehensive vehicle insurance allows for worry-free drives by curbing your vehicle repair expenses and helping you adhere to the law on the road
Types of Travel Insurance coverage
1. Domestic travel insurance plan
This policy is designed for customers intending to travel within the contours of the country. A domestic travel insurance policy insulates the policyholder from expenses that may result from treatment of a medical emergency, theft/loss of baggage and other valuables, delays/cancellation of flights, permanent disability, and personal liability (refers to third-party damages inflicted by you while you’re on the trip).
2. International travel insurance
This policy is designed in keeping with what customers – travelling internationally – would want. Besides the usual coverage offered by its domestic counterpart, an international travel insurance policy safeguards you (policyholder) against risks of a flight hijack, repatriation to India, etc.
3. Medical travel insurance
The name is the marker here – with the policy specifically designed to cover expenses emanating from medical emergencies and other healthcare-related concerns. However, the exact set of inclusions and exclusions will vary across insurance providers.
4. Group travel insurance
Consider a group of employees travelling abroad to participate in a business conclave. In such a situation, it would not make sense for every individual in the group to purchase his/her own travel insurance policy – for the simple reason that it could compound premiums considerably
