Make sure your insurance policy covers expenses like medical emergencies, injury or illnesses. If you are planning for a family holiday trip or friend’s holiday trip, then every fellow traveller has to be insured individually.

The travel insurance should and would ideally cover the loss of passport and the expenses incurred for obtaining a fresh or a duplicate passport. Loss of baggage is another important component to be covered by the insurance. Correspondingly, total loss of baggage expenses is taken into account.

If the trip is delayed by more than 12 hours due to some issues with airlines or natural disasters or due to a medical emergency, then that also should be covered.
