When you make plans to travel and need to purchase travel insurance it is a chore that often gets left until the last possible moment – or sometimes not at all.

Like any insurance, you know that a travel insurance policy will be difficult to understand. It will come with all that small print and technical insurance jargon. Very often people will wait until the last possible moment and then go online and purchase a policy with the first company they find listed, pay the premium, and hope for the best. They pack the policy with their passport and documents and don’t give it another thought. Not, that is, until something goes wrong! What could be worse than being in a panic and having to scour the policy document under pressure to find out what is covered, what to do, and who to call!

Experienced travelers will probably have learned the hard way how to make their trip as trouble-free as possible. Whether you travel for business or for pleasure you will want everything to go as smoothly as possible. You basically need to reach your destination as planned and return home in one piece – without having encountered any delays or serious problems, getting injured or sick, or losing any of your possessions.

Wouldn’t it would be nice if life were that simple! Unfortunately, things don’t always go as planned and when they go wrong it is usually for reasons completely beyond your control. The only control you really have is to purchase travel insurance that will cover most of the annoying, or serious, problems that might occur.

What are the most common travel mishaps that you worry about? The airlines losing your luggage is probably somewhere near the top of the list. In these turbulent times you might also be afraid that your airline will go out of business. However, purchasing a travel insurance policy that includes cover for ‘scheduled airline failure’ should take care of that one.

The most expensive problems are likely to involve emergency medical treatment, personal liability and legal issues. That is why it is so important to understand what you are buying – and even more important to understand the levels of cover provided (translated – this means the maximum amount the insurance will pay!). You should also check the amount of excess (deductible) – which is the amount that you have to pay on a claim.

You probably don’t resent the hours spent searching online for the perfect holiday destination, the most convenient flight times, and a hotel or resort with all the amenities you require. You then have to arrange to take time off work, check that your passport and visas are in order, arrange for pet-sitters or kennels, order your foreign currency, start packing, and countless other matters.

When you consider how much time you spent making all those elaborate arrangements, and how much it cost, doesn’t it make sense to spend a bit more time understanding how to protect it all?

Like most things in life, once you understand your travel insurance policy it will no longer be so intimidating. If you purchase travel insurance online the website should include an option to view the policy document before you buy. Most policies also come with a Glossary to explain the technical jargon. If, after reading through it, you are still confused then a reputable company will provide a way to contact them by phone or email. If you have reason to make a claim on the insurance during your trip you will be so glad that you took the time to understand what you were buying!

When you are shopping by price for travel insurance, especially online, you should always be sure that you are paying for what you need. Everyone has different travel needs, and their policies reflect that. Only you can decide what you will need insured on your trip. No matter what price you can get for a quote, it is worthless to you if it does not give you the coverage you need. You always want a small price tag attached to a great policy.

How will I know I am getting a good deal?

There are seven things you should look at before you decide to actually buy a policy. Take a look at your coverage. Make absolutely sure you are covered for all your travel needs. If you plan on traveling to Europe, make sure your coverage does not only work for Australia. Insurance companies will try to exclude where their coverage protects you in the fine print; you need to read that fine print!

Make sure to check to see if there are any listed limitations to the amount of trips you can take, or a limit on the amount of days you can spend traveling. Cheaper travel insurance companies are notorious for presenting limited travel insurance as annual travel insurance. The best way to avoid this is to read carefully and be positive you know what you are buying. Pay special attention to all things listed under “Exclusions” in your policy. You do not want something you need to be left off of your policy. No matter how many promises any salesperson tries to make with you, only listen to the paper. If it is not on the paper, you do not have it.

Take the time to read the claim policy for your insurance. It will do you no good to have amazing coverage if you do not know how to validate a claim. Disreputable companies usually have a very complex and restrictive procedure for filing claims. These procedures are designed to discourage customers from making claims, thus saving the insurance company from actually covering you. The claim procedure should be very clear and easy to follow, just in case you need it. Glance through your medical coverage, if you are buying any. Policies will sometimes need special notice regarding medical conditions, or they will not cover you.

If you are a corporate or business traveler check to see if business trips are covered in your insurance policy. If you can find no written statement referring to business trips, you can ask for it to be specifically included in your policy. This is a common loop whole insurance companies use to avoid paying their dues. A 24 hour helpline is something I consider essential. You want to be able to get help from your travel insurance company, no matter what time of the day it is. You might consider calling the helpline before you travel, just to see if it is in working order.

Keep in Mind:

Always have in the foremost of your mind that you are not trying to buy the cheapest travel insurance you can find. The worst possible thing you can do to yourself is buy travel insurance that does not give you the coverage you need.
