First of all, you can decide whether a basic coverage is sufficient for you, or whether you need a comprehensive travel coverage. This basically depends on where your trip takes you and what the risks might be.
With the basic cover of our travel insurance you have travel cancellation insurance and travel interruption cover. This is how you can insure the financial loss in case of a vacation cancellation or an unscheduled end of the trip by us. We would like to introduce you to the benefits in more detail.

In order to be reimbursed for the costs of a trip cancellation, you need travel cancellation insurance. This is included in every tariff we offer. It comes into play in the event of various everyday risks and covers not only yourself, but also risk persons such as family members. Travel protection exists among other things with:

Our tip
If you want to cover your trip completely, we can definitely recommend our travel insurance VIP. This way you have one contact person for all insured risks, no matter if you have to cancel a trip, if your luggage was damaged or if you had to see a doctor at your vacation destination.+
Especially when it comes to travel health insurance, you should not arrive uninsured on vacations outside of Europe. The statutory health insurance or private health insurance does not cover your expenses in all cases. If transport should then become necessary, the costs can quickly rise to 10.000 Euro and more.

After you have selected the appropriate benefits, you can specify who should be insured at all. Depending on which travel insurance you want, travel protection applies to three different people: Single rates, couple insurance or protection for the whole family.
Our one-time travel insurances offer a special feature. These can be taken out for up to four people per policy, regardless of relationship or place of residence. The premium is not per person, but per contract. We recommend this tariff especially for small groups who want to insure individual trips.

Families
The family travel insurance complements the couple tariff with the possibility to cover children. Here, too, the place of residence and the living situation do not play a role. We insure grandparents with grandchildren, patchwork families or other cohabiting couples. By the way, children are covered up to the age of 21. Co-insured for the first year of life.
Choice of the sum insured and the deductible
Finally, you choose the amount of insurance you need to cover your travels. This should correspond to the travel price you usually charge for your vacations. Remember that the annual travel insurance covers any number of trips up to the selected sum insured. We have prepared an example for you.
