Need for Travel Insurance
Travel insurance is what you need when in-eventualities happen during travel. Whereas many are often easy to shoulder, some are pretty costly and without an adequate amount of insurance cover, surviving through the times can be a costly affair. In this article, I am going to focus on travel insurance and provide three crucial travel scenarios when travel insurance can be such a savior.
 

Flight cancellations
Flight cancellation is a common feature that affects airports in different parts of the world. In most cases, one can fore-go a flight or be impacted by a flight cancellation for one reason or the other. Ideally, most flights are cancelled for bad weather, impending terrorist threats and attacks, because of personal emergencies and when air planes develop mechanical problems, etc. With the cancellations in place, travelers are bound to lose out on costs incurred to book tickets because many airlines have rigid policies concerning flight cancellations as far as refunds are concerned. Good travel insurance should be able to cover a good amount of the sum, depending on the terms of the policy.
 
Medical emergencies
No human being is medical emergency proof. This is considering the large number of people who suffer from one ailment or the other; some of which only show when they are traveling. Getting a good travel insurance policy can factor costs which result in one being sick or having a medical emergency on their trip. The costs covered could be anything from a simple medical emergency expenses, ambulance fees, medical checkup and admission fees, and many other costs associated with the travel package like air fair, etc.
It’s important to note that there are different aspects of cover offered for different travel insurance companies. There are also clauses concerning cover extended to third parties in many health insurance/travel insurance policies sold to travelers. This aspects are very important to look at, especially when making a decision concerning travel insurance offers.

EvacuationsThe way the world works presently is a product of the global environment. Emergencies at airports have become a norm and travelers’ preparedness in such cases is of utmost importance. In practice; during evacuations, the expenses one is likely to incur are airlifts to safety, hospital expenses and general transport to safety. Most travel insurance packages are known to offer cover for evacuation expenses as well.
Overall, traveling is great but, a risk in itself. Having travel insurance has many benefits and these cannot be limited to the few enumerated above or n the fact that many tour agencies cannot accept travelers without travel insurance  to reduce their expenses. For the general travel sector, travel insurance is almost becoming an industry standard and hence needs to be well taken care of.
