Any advise when buying trip/travel insurance?
Like anything, you can buy good travel insurance and bad travel insurance. I recommend you stick with a “brand name”. TravelGuard International is the industry leader and they are not overly expensive. You can get more information from an interesting and easy-to-use site. Go to http://www.wavehelp.com/travel-medical/index.htm and click on the red phone booth to read about “Worldwide Health” insurance. It covers health issues as well as trip interruption issues. You can easily buy on-line. To avoid any possible conflict of interest, I recommend that you buy your travel insurance from a source different from your transport arrangements.
