Things to remember when you're arranging travel insurance:
- Make sure that your travel insurance is valid for the entire duration of your trip
- Bear in mind that if you need to make a claim, most travel insurance companies require you to have purchased the insurance policy before you leave on your trip
- Most travel insurances include basic medical and accident cover, baggage loss or delay, and trip cancellation, interruption or delay. But specialized insurance policies can vary from country to country so remember to always make sure you know exactly what your policy covers
- If you need insurance to cover you for extreme sports such as winter sports, scuba-diving or mountain climbing, please ensure that you mention this at the time of purchase and take out extra insurance cover if necessary.
