Infographics: Travel Insurance Myths Vs. Truth

Travel insurance: some say it’s necessary; others say you don’t need it. Others may feel distrustful of travel insurance companies and believe that they try to upsell customers regardless of the customer’s actual needs. This is not the case. 

The essential truth is that as long as you purchase a travel insurance policy from a reliable source, it’s not the intention of travel insurance companies to trick you into buying something you don’t need or overcharge you for a policy. In fact, travel insurance is designed to help you in stressful or emergency travel situations and give you peace of mind.
