Travel insurance advice is usually one-size-fits-all: buy it, always, end of story. But the honest answer depends on your trip and what you already have — a two-night city break with strong credit-card cover is a different risk to a trekking holiday in a remote region. This check scores your actual exposure — destination health risk, planned activities, trip length and the cover you already hold — then compares it against the typical premium for your trip cost. The verdict tells you plainly whether a policy likely pays, is borderline, or is genuinely optional for your profile.
Score whether travel insurance is worth buying for your specific trip — destination health risk, activities, trip cost and what you already have covered — with an honest premium estimate.
