Today's traveler can and should get travel insurance. A lot of things can go wrong when traveling today. For example, your trip may be canceled, your baggage could be lost, and you may have a medical emergency. All these expenses can be covered by some of today's insurance companies. So before you travel, consider insurance. Here are two examples that I have encountered.

Example 1

We had a friend visiting us from England. During her visit we went horse back riding. She fell while riding, right on her back. Seeing she was in pain, we did not want to move her and went and called 911. The Emergency Medical Technicians (EMT) transported her to the hospital where she was diagnosed with a severely bruised back. She spent several days in pain, but fortunately she recovered. The best thing of all this, she had travel insurance and was fully covered.

Example 2

Another friend came and visited us while we lived in Alaska. One day she complained of a swollen spot on her leg. After applying home remedy it only got worse. We took her to the emergency room where she was diagnose with a spider bite. After the proper treatment, she was released and had a full recovery. And of course, the best part of this experience was she had insurance. So she was fully covered.

Travel insurance not only covers you medically, but will pay for lost baggage and trip cancellation. With the large amount of trip disruptions because of weather concerns and tightened security at airports, it may be worthwhile to look into insurance.
