Getting your hands on cheap travel insurance is now considered to be a positive move as the value of insurance today is not reflected in the cost but the level of service provided regardless of whether or not a claim has been processed. There are many insurance providers and you can get a policy drawn up while booking a holiday or flight or even at the mall but be warned that your best choice is getting yourself insured by an independent business that deals only in travel insurance.

Sourcing your cheap travel insurance directly online means that the savings will be passed on to you, cutting the cost but not the cover. Just because cheap travel insurance is cost effective does not translate into its quality being compromised.

A policy should always include the basics: 24 Hr Worldwide Medical Emergency Service;-- day 'no questions asked' money refund guarantee; A 'No Excess Waiver' enabling you to waiver the excess cost when you purchase your policy; 25% Rule - being able to travel out of your designated cover 'area' for 25% of your policy; 80+ adventure sports covered automatically (inc bungee jumping, surfing, parasailing and white water rafting); Your Insurance must be a 'Living Document which means you can make changes to certain aspects of your policy as you travel.

Travel insurance is not just for those with a bit of extra money and a hoard of valuable belongings.

This is where your insurance does its job and gets the right attention to you (or you to the right attention).
