Cheap Travel insurance for Kanchanaburi travel is something that needs consideration.
Cheap insurance does not necessarily mean good
insurance however so check the small print.
As you know, things can and do go wrong with
a holiday, sometimes before you even start your
holiday The following information applies to
residents and non-residents, whether you’re
traveling to or from Kanchanaburi or within
Thailand.
Package holiday companies and tour operators
offer insurance policies (some of which are compulsory
and often expensive and may not provide adequate
cover!). Travel insurance is also available from
many other sources, including travel agents, insurance
companies, and banks. You may also have it on
your credit or debit card and be unaware of it.
You can buy 24-hour accident and flight insurance
at major airports, although this tends to be expensive
as you are a captive audience and may not offer
the best cover.
Before taking out travel insurance, carefully
consider the range and level of cover you require
and compare policies in detail. Short-term holiday
and travel insurance policies should include cover
for holiday cancellation or interruption, especially
with self catering holidays, missed flights; departure
delays at both the start and end of a holiday.
Delayed, lost, stolen or damaged baggage, personal
effects and money.
Medical expenses are very important these should
include repatriation, personal liability and legal
expenses. If you are unwell then to be at the
mercy of a foreign hospital will be worrying and
can cause untold problems in management of care.
Flight insurance and default or bankruptcy insurance
are a serious consideration. A tour operator or
airline may go bust and leave your holiday in
jeopardy or you in a foreign land with no means
of getting home. This latter problem can be avoided
by booking with and ABTA/IATA/ATOL approved company
such as Discovery
