- Helps if your baggage is lost or stolen
- Gives peace of mind while travelling
Even if it's not a requirement, it’s always safer to travel with insurance. It can save you from big expenses and stress in case something goes wrong in your trip.
Conclusion

It’s also wise to get a single trip insurance policy, which is designed specifically for one-time travel. It offers protection for the entire duration of your trip, from departure to return. It covers common travel risks like medical emergencies, delays or lost baggage, so you can enjoy your holiday with peace of mind.
