WHAT IS TRAVEL INSURANCE AND WHAT DOES SCHENGEN VISA TRAVEL INSURANCE USUALLY COVER?

 

Travel Insurance

Travel insurance covers you if something happens while you’re on holiday or before you travel. This could include the costs of cancelling your holiday if you become ill and can’t go, or if your baggage is lost or damaged during your journey.

Travel insurance also includes cover for medical expenses if you need emergency treatment abroad and, in extreme cases, the costs of returning you to the UK. These costs can be very high, so it’s important to make sure you have enough cover before you travel.

All Schengen Visa Itinerary travel insurance includes cancellation, baggage and medical expenses cover as standard, among a range of other covers and benefits. There is also extra cover you can add to your policy, for example if you are going skiing or on a cruise.
