The ₹100 Mistake That Ruined a ₹2 Lakh Vacation
Travel insurance is one of the most overlooked essentials for international trips. Yet, it’s the only thing standing between a smooth holiday and a financial nightmare. This article reveals why having the right travel insurance can save your trip — and your wallet.
The Nightmare No One Plans For
Imagine saving for months to take your dream Europe trip. Flights? Booked. Hotels? Stunning. Itinerary? Packed with once-in-a-lifetime experiences. But just two days in, a sudden stomach infection lands you in a foreign hospital emergency room. The hospital bill? ₹1.2 lakhs. And your flight changes, hotel cancellations, and lost tour bookings? Another ₹50,000 down the drain.
All for what could’ve been avoided — with a ₹100/day international travel insurance policy.
Yes, really. That’s the average daily cost of a comprehensive travel insurance plan in India that could’ve covered your medical emergency, travel reimbursements, and more.
Why Most People Skip It — And Why You Shouldn’t
Let’s face it — when planning a trip, no one likes to think about what could go wrong. We’re focused on beaches, bucket lists, and boarding passes. But international travel is unpredictable — delays, illnesses, lost baggage, and visa rejections aren’t just rare “what-ifs”. They’re real.
And yet, many skip travel insurance for international trips thinking:
- “I’m young and healthy”
- “It’s a short trip, what could happen?”
- “It’s just an extra cost”
But here’s the truth: travel insurance isn’t a luxury — it’s your safety net.
What Does Travel Insurance Really Cover?
Here’s what you can expect from a well-designed, globally accepted travel insurance policy:
- Emergency medical expenses abroad
- Lost or delayed baggage support
- Trip delays, cancellations, or interruptions
- Passport or wallet loss assistance
- Flight delay or missed connections
- Third-party liability coverage and so much more…
These aren’t “optional” anymore — they’re must-haves for smart global travelers.
