Creator's Key Takeaways

I refuse to travel without it and I do go a step further and I read the PDS to make sure that I'm aware of any of my obligations and duties under the terms of the policy

if you can't afford travel insurance then you can't afford to travel

I had an example a few years ago on Voyager of the Seas where I actually found it was better than my Standalone travel insurance policy
