Discussion Travel Insurance vs Flexible Flights: What’s Your Take?

[AroundTheGlobeZ]

Covid definitely threw a wrench in our plans last month, and having a flexible flight really saved us. But now I’m wondering, do you think it’s worth getting travel insurance as well? I mean, can you really rely on just one or should you have both for peace of mind? What have your experiences been like with this? Any advice would be appreciated!

It's a great question! While flexible flights are essential, travel insurance can provide that extra layer of protection, especially for unforeseen circumstances like cancellations or health issues abroad. From my experience, having both offers the best peace of mind. Have you had any specific situations that made you think about this? I'd love to hear your thoughts on what you prioritize when traveling!

It’s definitely a tricky situation! Flexible flights offer great adaptability, but travel insurance is invaluable for covering unexpected events. I've had instances where travel insurance saved me from hefty medical bills while abroad. It really depends on your travel style—if you're prone to changes or potential mishaps, I’d lean towards having both. What type of trips do you usually take?
