Anybody ever had to use travel insurance form the airport.

Do i have to come back to Kimchistan to claim if something goes wrong or do they sort it out?

It's proving a sod getting insurance for the end of htis contract. I've not been resident in the UK 7 years or so. So a UK based policy would be obtained fraudulently if I applied for it.

Just want to cover two weeks I'm in LOS before the missus and I head back to the UK.

I have always just bought insurance at the airport and no you don't need to come back to Korea to sort things out if something goes wrong, they have local representatives.

To be safe(r) though, I have always gone with AIG.

Cheers Tzechuk

I will endeavor to remember to go this time. Last time we went home to the UK we had planned to pick some up for the three weeks, but using the online check in we ended up cutting it too fine.


I always feel that World Nomads is overpriced for what they offer.
