Getting travel insurance is important because it protects you financially and gives you peace of mind in case something goes wrong before or during your trip. Here’s why you should consider it: 1. Medical Emergencies & Healthcare Costs Overseas medical expenses can be extremely expensive, especially in countries like the US, where hospital bills can be thousands of euros. Covers emergency medical treatment, hospital stays, and sometimes medical evacuation back to Ireland. 2. Trip Cancellations & Delays If you need to cancel due to illness, injury, family emergencies, or unforeseen circumstances, insurance helps you recover non-refundable costs. Covers delayed or missed flights due to weather, strikes, or technical issues. 3. Lost, Stolen, or Damaged Belongings Reimburses you for lost or stolen luggage, passports, or valuables. Protects against baggage delays, helping cover the cost of essentials while waiting for your bags. 4. Travel Disruptions & Unexpected Situations Covers accommodation costs if your trip is unexpectedly extended (e.g., natural disasters, strikes, political unrest). Can include rental car coverage if you’re driving abroad. 5. Personal Liability Protection If you accidentally injure someone or damage property, insurance can cover legal expenses. 6. COVID-19 & Other Health-Related Coverage Many policies now cover COVID-related cancellations and medical expenses. 7. Peace of Mind Even if you never need to use it, travel insurance provides reassurance that you’re financially protected from unexpected events. How to Choose the Right Policy? Make sure it covers your destination and planned activities (e.g., adventure sports, cruises). Check the excess fees (the amount you pay before coverage kicks in). Compare policies from trusted providers to get the best coverage for your needs. Would you like recommendations for good Irish travel insurance providers?
