Is Mexico in the Caribbean for travel insurance?


Is Mexico in the Caribbean for travel insurance? It varies between providers whether Mexico is classed as part of the Caribbean or not. Some popular areas on the East coast - for example Tulum, Playa del Carmen and Cancun - are considered the Caribbean by insurers, so check policy documents before you buy. Either way, you'll always need worldwide travel insurance.


Can I buy travel medical insurance only?

Travel medical insurance is offered either as part of comprehensive travel insurance plans, or may be purchased as a stand-alone plan. If you have a comprehensive plan, you may also be covered by other travel-related coverages, such as trip cancellation or interruption.


Is it OK to not have travel insurance?

If your trip doesn't involve any nonrefundable reservations, you may not need travel insurance. For instance, if you've booked only airplane tickets and a hotel stay for your vacation, and they're both governed by flexible cancellation policies, the trip cancellation benefit may not be necessary.
