Here are some of the cover benefits available with your policy, whichever you choose – Basic, The Works or Annual Multi Trip.
Don't like medical bills?
TID provides cover for unforeseen medical expenses incurred while on an overseas holiday.
Unexpected cancellation?
Your TID policy – whichever level of cover you choose – may cover you if you have to cancel your trip due to unforeseeable events outside of your control (e.g. sudden illness or a death in the family).
