Travel Insurance Services

Craig Weisweaver from Mishawaka, Indiana, is critically ill in Japan. He contracted a virus while visiting family members there.

Because he has no health or travel insurance and because he is too sick to take a commercial flight, Weisweaver is stranded in Japan.  Japanese hospitals will not treat him because he has no insurance to cover emergency, hospital and doctor bills.

The alternative would be to air medevac him back to the U.S. but that would cost the family 0,000, an amount they do not have. 

Family members, U.S. Congressmen, and local residents are working together to bring Weisweaver home, praying he hangs in there until then.

International travel insurance has been a catch phrase for people who have taken trips abroad and have visited different places across the globe. All the trips of people have normally been accompanied with travel insurance to cover the said trip and protect the individual. But the question remains as to what these travel insurance policies really are and if these are truly justified with the welfare of the traveler.

As a matter of course, these insurance policies are very important to say the least. There are explanations of course, as to why such insurance is very important to the tourist or the traveler. It is worthy to note of several reasons in making the acquisition of travel insurance an important exercise.
