Travelling abroad can be thrilling, but unexpected situations often turn plans upside down. Imagine falling ill in a foreign country, missing a connecting flight, or losing your checked baggage; these challenges can be stressful and expensive. Many travellers overlook these risks, assuming emergencies are rare, yet even minor incidents can lead to significant financial burdens.
Bajaj General Insurance Limited's international travel insurance offers a practical solution, providing coverage for medical emergencies, trip interruptions, and lost checked-in baggage. By securing a policy before your journey, you ensure financial protection and access to support services worldwide. This allows you to travel confidently, knowing that unexpected setbacks won’t spoil your trip or drain your savings.
1. Complete Medical Coverage During Emergencies
Medical expenses abroad can be substantial, and even minor health issues can become costly. With the Travel Ace plan from Bajaj General Insurance Limited, you are covered for medical emergencies, including hospitalisation, accidental injuries, and emergency dental treatment. Coverage varies by plan, from USD 50,000 (Standard) to USD 500,000 (Platinum). For travellers with pre-existing medical conditions, the Platinum variant provides limited emergency cover for life-threatening situations only if the specific optional/add-on coverage is purchased. Pre-existing condition coverage is not included by default and does not cover ongoing or routine treatment. Purchasing travel insurance before departure ensures timely access to emergency medical support when needed.
2. No Pre-Policy Medical Check-Up for Most Travellers
The Travel Ace plan generally does not require a pre-policy medical examination for travellers up to certain age limits. However, older age groups, longer trip durations, or travellers with specific health risks may be asked to submit medical declarations or reports for certain plan variants. This ensures appropriate risk assessment and coverage eligibility.
3. Protection Against Trip Interruptions and Cancellations
Trips can be delayed, cancelled, or interrupted due to unforeseen events such as illness or natural disasters. The Travel Ace plan offers trip cancellation and interruption coverage, reimbursing non-refundable travel expenses, including flights and hotel bookings. Coverage is subject to the policy terms, sub-limits, and exclusions; not all personal reasons or delays are automatically covered.
4. Coverage for Lost Or Delayed Check-In Baggage, Passport, And Emergency Cash
Losing check-in baggage can disrupt travel plans. The Travel Ace plan provides compensation for lost or delayed check-in baggage, as well as assistance for lost passports or driving licenses, and emergency cash support. Sub-limits may apply, and not every plan variant automatically includes all these benefits.
5. Personal Accident and Liability Coverage
Accidents or third-party incidents can occur unexpectedly. The Travel Ace plan includes personal accident and liability coverage to help manage medical and certain legal expenses. Coverage is subject to exclusions, including accidents resulting from the use of substances, commercial activities, or deliberate actions.
6. Daily Hospital Allowance and Compassionate Visit
Some plan variants offer daily hospital allowances and cover compassionate visits for family members in the event of extended hospitalisation. These are not automatically included in every plan and must be selected as optional benefits.
7. Flexible Modular Plan Options
The Bajaj General Insurance Limited’s Travel Ace plan is modular, offering multiple variants, including Standard, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Super Age, and Corporate Lite/Plus. These options cater to various age groups, travel purposes, and trip durations. Multi-trip coverage is also available for frequent travellers.
8. Group Savings for Travellers
Companion or group online savings are available on select plans, with varying percentages and eligibility requirements based on current Bajaj General Insurance Limited terms and promotions.
9. Home Burglary and Robbery Coverage
Certain Travel Ace variants include the option to add home burglary and robbery coverage, helping protect valuables such as laptops, mobile devices, and other portable equipment while you are away. This optional benefit allows you to customise your policy for extra peace of mind, ensuring your home and belongings remain secure during your travels.
10. Easy Policy Management Via App
The Caringly Yours app allows policyholders to access their coverage, emergency contacts, and claim support. Features and interface updates may vary over time and between policyholders.
11. Peace of Mind While Travelling
International travel comes with uncertainties, from health emergencies to lost check-in baggage. By purchasing international travel insurance in advance, you secure financial protection and support services that help make your journey smoother and less stressful.
