We often get asked if travel insurance is necessary.

Good question! Keep reading to find out, or click here to benefit from a 5% discount* — up to 15% with seasonal offers — if you do need travel insurance.

So, do you need a travel insurance?

Well, it varies. If you've snagged budget-friendly flights, booked accommodations with flexible cancellation policies, and you're an EU citizen traveling within the EU, you might opt out of travel insurance.

Given that you'll have your EU insurance card to cover any medical issues, you might decide to take the risk and not book cancellation coverage.

However, if your trip is on the pricier side and involves travel overseas, expensive tours and/or non-refundable accommodations, we highly recommend investing in travel insurance, covering both cancellation and health concerns.

It’s particularly wise in destinations like the US, where a simple doctor visit can rack up hefty bills.

If you enjoy active holidays, then it’s definitely a good idea. Whether you're surfing in Nazaré, hiking in Swedish Lapland, wrecking your snowmobile in Svalbard, or cutting your foot on coral in Formentera (ask us how we know), travel insurance that covers adventure sports and remote medical care is a must. We recommend Heymondo because it’s affordable, flexible, easy to use, and covers the kind of travel we actually do. Plus, as an exclusive offer for Penguin Trampoline, our readers can benefit from a 5% discount* — up to 15% with seasonal offers!

What are the benefits of travel insurance?

Medical emergencies

If you become ill or injured while traveling, especially in a foreign country where healthcare costs can be high, travel insurance can cover your medical expenses — including hospital stays, emergency medical evacuation, and repatriation.

Did you know?

Some hazardous activities, like snowmobiling in harsh conditions, require travel insurance to be booked.

Trip cancellation or interruption

Life is unpredictable and sometimes, unforeseen circumstances may force you to cancel or cut your trip short. Travel insurance can reimburse you for non-refundable trip costs due to covered reasons such as illness, injury, natural disasters, pandemics or other emergencies.

When we resumed traveling in 2021, we made sure to book a policy covering COVID-19.

Travel delays

If your trip is delayed due to reasons beyond your control, such as weather, airline strikes, or mechanical issues, travel insurance can compensate you for additional expenses such as accommodations, meals, and transportation.

Emergency assistance

Many travel insurance policies offer 24/7 emergency assistance services, providing help with medical referrals, translation services, legal assistance, and other emergency support while traveling.

Traveling can be stressful, and having travel insurance can provide peace of mind, knowing that you're financially protected against unforeseen events that could otherwise ruin your trip or cause significant financial strain.
