You’re stranded, aren’t you?. Your bags are lost, aren’t they? The flight is delayed, isn’t it? You’re going to miss your connection, aren’t you? Is there some kind of problem with your hotel reservation? I’ll bet you feel tired and helpless, don’t you? There are only three things that could make matters worse and they all happen, one, two, three, like loosing a quick baseball innings: You get sick.

Someone steals your wallet. You drop your cell phone and it gets crushed under another traveller’s luggage cart. I’ll bet you’re hungry too now, aren’t you? Feeling tired? Feeling all alone and hopeless? Feeling foolish? Don’t know what to do? I’ll bet you wished you’d signed up for travel insurance. Thought you didn’t need travel insurance, didn’t you? You thought “things like that never happen to me.” You’ve probably travelled a lot, travelled all over the world, by plane, by train, by ship.

Everything ran like clockwork. You’ve never had an incident before now. How could you know something like this would occur? Oh, no! It’s not your daughter’s wedding you’re about to miss. Is she going to delay the wedding as long as the flight is delayed? Or will she just link to you by phone from whatever airport you’re waiting out your extended layover? Are you feeling sorry for yourself? Are you feeling foolish?

Lucky you: you’re just having a day-mare. How wise you are. You have imagined the worst things that could happen on your journey and now you have made up your mind: You going to sign up for travel insurance. Many people think travel insurance is just an unnecessary luxury. Maybe it will buy you a little piece of mind but does it really cover things that really happen? Isn’t travel insurance just another way the industry has of taking a bite out of your pocket? You can use that extra money to buy an ice cream cone and a post card. So why bother? Happy you. Lucky you.

You are not one of the people who think like that. You are not one of the millions of people who wind up paying more to get out of situations your travel insurance agency could handle with speed and ease and send you on your way. You are worth your weight in wisdom. Travel insurance; it covers all kinds of unforeseeable situations. Now please place your luggage on the scale and place your travel concerns on your travel insurance agency. It’s worth it.
