Travel insurance used to be considered as something that involved extra expenses if you have spare cash left over after paying for airline tickets and hotel rooms. For most of us, when it is finally time for that long-awaited overseas vacation or business trip, the last thing you want to think about is things going wrong.<\/p>\n
Fast forward to 2022 and with borders opening up around the world, travel insurance is no longer something that you can choose not to buy. In fact, many countries require travellers to have some form of Covid-19 travel insurance, or at the very least pay for their Covid-19 screening and quarantine costs before they are allowed to enter.<\/p>\n
The world has made much progress in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. However, there are still some lingering risks, especially with the potential for new waves or strains to pop out of nowhere.<\/p>\n
Travellers may find themselves completely stuck if their host country experiences a sudden spike in COVID-19 cases. The pandemic has proven itself to be highly unpredictable. As such, lockdowns can occur in the blink of an eye. Travellers who find themselves stranded in a strange and foreign land will find that travel insurance can help to cover these extra unforeseen costs.<\/p>\n
In order to make it simple, we have compiled a list of travel insurance with Covid-19 coverage that Malaysians can buy.<\/p>\n
