Do I Need Travel Insurance?
Many travellers grapple with this question, often viewing travel insurance as an unexpected expense that wasn’t part of their planned budget. What if we told you that opting for an IATI insurance policy represents only a small fraction of your overall travel expenses? That’s right!
By choosing an IATI travel insurance policy, you can focus 100% on your journey and make the most of every adventure without worrying about anything other than having fun. Whether it’s a minor mishap like stumbling down the steps of a historic monument, encountering issues while snorkelling among exotic fish (especially on adventure-focused trips) or even facing common medical needs you’d typically address back in your own country, such as digestive discomfort, headaches, the flu, or back pain – without proper medical coverage, these seemingly minor incidents can result in bills amounting to thousands of euros. This is especially true in places with basic healthcare facilities like India or countries known for their high medical costs like the USA.
Why Choose IATI for Your Travel Insurance
Comprehensive Medical Assistance
We’ve already emphasized the importance of travel insurance when it comes to medical assistance abroad, where costs can be sky-high or the quality of care questionable. At IATI, we go the extra mile, and all our policies include medical coverage abroad. The coverage amount varies from policy to policy.
Medical costs can skyrocket in certain countries, and even a simple visit to a quality hospital for a check-up involving basic tests like an analysis or an X-ray can easily exceed 500 euros. Another common scenario is that some countries lack the necessary facilities to address your medical needs. When you have travel insurance, you ensure that whatever issues arise, you’ll always be treated by the best specialists without having to pay out of your pocket.
Best Price/Quality Guarantee
Our excellent price-to-quality ratio will convince you that IATI offers the best travel insurance, no matter your destination. Purchasing travel insurance is a small expense within your travel budget.
If you ever need assistance, your travel insurance will translate into substantial savings, as you won’t have to foot the bills, which could amount to thousands of euros. Travelling safely doesn’t have to break your budget.
Assistance in Your Language
When you require assistance, whether it’s medical or any other form of help, the last thing you want is to explain your problem over the phone in a language different from yours. Can you imagine having to explain in a foreign language that you require urgent help in the middle of a complicated situation? That could waste precious time and be vital in certain cases.
That’s why with your IATI travel insurance, you’ll always be attended to in your language. And if required, we’ll provide an interpreter to assist with translations.
You can reach out to us 24/7 for free. If you contact us by phone from abroad and send us the call invoice, we’ll reimburse you, so you won’t have to pay the international call charges.
Adventure Sports Coverage
Most of our policies provide coverage for adventure sports.
Coverage for adventure sports is essential in your travel insurance, especially if your trip is packed with adventurous activities.
Whether you want to explore the depths of the sea, wander through lush nature, engage in adventure sports, or more, choose a travel insurance policy that includes adventure sports coverage. IATI Backpacker coverage includes activities like snorkelling, diving up to 40 meters, kayaking, zip-lining, and hiking.
No Deductibles, You Won’t Pay Anything Out of Pocket
Many insurance companies hide in the fine print that their policies have deductibles. This means that, for example, with a deductible of 100 euros, every time you need any kind of medical assistance, you’ll have to pay the first 100 euros, even after already paying for the policy.
At IATI, we don’t work with deductibles, and we always assist you from the first cent of your medical assistance, so you won’t have to worry about money.
Loss of Luggage and Theft Included
On a trip, many things can happen besides health issues. That’s why IATI travel insurance policies are designed to cover various situations, not just health-related ones. You’ll have coverage for luggage problems or theft, including theft with violence, in all our policies.
The coverage for loss of luggage depends on the policy you choose, so please check the specific coverage on the insurance page you intend to purchase.
Cancellation Option – Cancel Your Trip
Being protected not only during but also before your trip is another important aspect of having travel insurance. This is possible thanks to our cancellation coverage designed to prevent you from losing money on flights, accommodations, and activities.
