Before the September 11 tragedy, I did not know that there was such a thing as travel insurance. Then just after the tragedy, travel became a bit more costly because not only did insurance become mandatory but also expensive. I was glad that after a while, travel insurance became voluntary, especially when traveling by plane. It is one less expense to worry about particularly if you are just going on a routine trip within your country for a short period of time. Of course it is another matter if you are going to travel abroad for an extended stay. Travel insurance would be a very good protection indeed against unexpected crisis and additional expenses.
