| Introduction
|
| |
| Stop
worrying about unwelcome surprises like medical and hospital
expenses incurred as a result of accident or sickness
whilst overseas and even emergency medical evacuation
& repatriation. |
| |
| Your
travel insurance protects you financially in case your
trip is cancelled or interrupted due to trip curtailment.
Your baggage & personal effects are also covered against
loss or damages. In case of Baggage Delay, you are reimbursed
for any emergency purchases of essential items |
|
| Accidents
can happen anywhere, even on a trip. Guard yourself against
any loss of personal money or documents. Give yourself
the assurance of 24-hour assistance in case you need to
replace a passport, locate medical facilities or find
a lawyer. |
