I am booking return tickets for my travel to Thailand in Oct online. They have an Insure Return (Return Travel Protection), i really don't know it is necessary for my trip to Thailand. Does it cover me during the time i stay in Thailand or it just coves flights only? I really want to buy travel insurance that covers me during my trip in Thailand because who knows what will happens to me when i travel. Does anyone know about it? Thank you so much in advance.

You should get travel insurance that covers all of your trip. It will cover your flights and time in Thailand. You can get medical coverage and luggage coverage. I like to get airline failure cover. In life accident happen: I fell down a drain in Malaysia on a dark evening. I came home from that trip on crutches. Good luck getting a good travel insurance policy for cover you and your trip to Thailand in October.

Thank you so much for your advices. I will buy travel insurance because i wont it will cover me whole my trip when i go. You are right, we will get much troubles if we get sick and don't have travel insurance when we stay abroad...

What the name sounds like is "Travel insurance" and I think they are talking about the insurance only for the time of your travel. If is was the other way then the name should sound like "trip insurance" or something else. It is good to discuss the things which one is skeptical about. Have a nice time.

Ya, that's why i am considering now... If it covers my flights only, then it is flight insurance, and i may not need it, i need an insurance type what can cover whole my trip when i stay abroad...
