No insurance covers a positive PCR, only pays out if you
got to the hospital. So it remains to hope for a chance.
And the tour also includes covid insurance, so you will get them anyway.

My friends had a join up tour with travel insurance. When passing the test, the head of the family turned out to have a positive PCR. They contacted the insurance company, they said that compensation is possible only for those who have a positive test, the rest either fly or lose money. So they did. A friend flew with 2 children. The money was returned for 2 months ..... but this. How they think there is unclear. Not much returned, but returned.

I look here https://eurotravelins.com.ua/ru/uslugi/ot-nevyezda/
It seems to be well written, a wide list of probable reasons for non-departure, but how realistic is it and does it work ...
аватар lana_181
Travel insurance is a good thing. But it is valid only three or two days (specify for each insurance separately) before departure. These items are written in the insurance policy. That is, if your flight was rescheduled not for two or three days, but for example for 4, then it is no longer valid. There are also points for payment if you get sick before departure. Such insurance costs two or three times more than the standard one. It's up to you.

Buy NORMAL insurance, not the one offered by the travel agency. Yes, it costs more, but if peace of mind is important to you, then I would recommend buying it. We have been living in this nonsense for more than a year, for a long time insurance companies have included covid in VHI, life insurance, and other insurances as an insured event.

Each insurance company has its own insurance rules and differences in covered risks. Details can be clarified at the office of the travel agency or the UK.
аватар YanaKaramel
About 100% of the cost of insurance, as mentioned above, covers only the one who got sick, the payment for the tour is about 70%
It's up to you to decide, we never took)
And if you are interested in order not to close the borders, then they transfer the tour even without covid insurance

Flew in March. So far, the insurance company has not returned the money. At first - there is no response from the travel agency, then - there is no response from the medical institution that did the tests (Except for the statement with seals - acts of work performed) A month later, it turns out that there was no such letter. They brought it themselves. In a month (or more) - the documents are under consideration. Now - the documents are being processed, but we are waiting for the renewal of the license

YanaKaramel does not cost $ 100 insurance, I bought up to 1000 UAH it is separate, from the standard Covid one. in our case, she was needed, it was Lebanon this spring. Well, how needed, the chances that they could cancel everything - the flight is the most important thing and it is not clear what happened with the tests upon arrival in Lebanon - no one knew the info. And yet, the flight was canceled for us, but UIA, like smart, did it in 5 days, insurance does not work in this case ... that's why we all argued with UIA))) If I were the author, I would not bother with Sharm. The main thing is to choose a good tour operator and find out which airlines you are flying with - the tour operator, in which case, is obliged to reschedule the tour. And insurance can be your individual, for example, against covid, I mean medical. And not a tourist one, it will cover your expenses in case of illness. But from not flying in our country, everything is tricky, they know how such insurance works, so flights are canceled not for 2-3 days, but for more. And this is the main point of payments in this insurance.

Once they took Covid Shield from Anex - they promise to pay all tourists in the application if one of them has a positive test. Deductible 15%. It was in May, just there was a wave of covid. But we didn’t get sick and didn’t use it, and we didn’t pass the tests, since they were just canceled then (to Turkey). It cost us around 800 UAH, I don’t remember exactly. The next time in July was not taken.

lana_181 The presence of an insurance policy, a good tour operator does not mean a quick refund (in our case, it seems, in general, "cried finances ", because the insurance license was suspended in April)
аватар lana_181
valminar How does that not mean? A well-chosen insurance company with a good reputation is the key to getting your money back. I do not know anything about your case and circumstances))
аватар ollennka
lana_181, ooh, they were in Lebanon! How was the situation there?
аватар YanaKaramel
lana_181 Friends flew to Rehana in May, the cost of insurance is 100 ye Anex operator, if memory serves, I didn’t fly to Lebanon, I don’t know
аватар lana_181
ollennka everything is fine. very much). It is necessary to write a story. There is no time for everything).
аватар lana_181
YanaKaramel well, Anex obviously earned)) Is this for one? We booked our own insurance.

lana_181 This is for 2 people

Travel insurance generally does not cover a pandemic. At least I don’t know of such an insurance that would cover travel restrictions due to covid. That is, if you get pneumonia, then insurance will cover your recognizance, but if pneumonia is from covid, then it will not cover. Therefore, check all the nuances in the insurance when buying this insurance. Better yet, read the terms and conditions of the insurance yourself. There is a nuance - if a family with a child flies and the child falls ill, then only the child and only one of the parents (for caring for the child) will be covered from not leaving.

lana_181 operator Join Up himself chose the insurance USI. At that time, everyone was worthy ... We wanted to postpone the trip - without allowing the tour operator.
аватар YanaKaramel
There are definitely many but...
at the expense of Join, an example of 2 families, some took Turkey for May by early booking (no one flew anywhere in May), their agent calmly postponed the tour to September with an additional payment of 50 euros, flew away and had a rest
And the second is the same joint with insurance against not leaving at the time of quarantine and closed borders, not only didn’t endure it and didn’t return the money, they are still suing ((A lot depends on the agent, and it’s not clear from whom it’s not worth taking (
аватар lana_181
valminar Well, you could choose your own insurance! Join ... well, how many more reviews and complaints do you need to write, so that people understand WHAT kind of tour operator is this! ? It happens that you are lucky and everything goes more or less smoothly .. but this is an accident for Join. Hu from USI? I repeat, you need to choose well-known insurance companies.
аватар lana_181
YanaKaramel if for 2 .. well, insurance costs about 700-900-- UAH (which covers from not leaving and covid) for one from not leaving. Well, the percentage of Anex, then everything converges)
аватар YanaKaramel
Well, I don’t know, I’m flying through the joint, except for minor delays, nothing else happened, after the anex and their “corn” there was a fear of flying))
аватар lana_181
YanaKaramel what does it mean no one flew anywhere in May?? I flew and hundreds of people like me). They just flew to Turkey. We flew via Istanbul. There were 4 flights every day - two from Turkish, two from UIA. Another thing is that flights have been cancelled. But then they ask about Egypt. We deviated from the topic)) Let the author choose not Join, but proven ones like Coral Tui, ... who calmly endure tours ... Extravaganza in the end) In Marsa Alam for example ..
аватар YanaKaramel
In quarantine 2020, no one flew anywhere in April or May, flights (part) were launched at 15.06 Egypt and Turkey since July
аватар lana_181
YanaKaramel and what does 2020 have to do with it? Now 2021))
аватар YanaKaramel
What do you mean no one flew anywhere in May?? I flew and hundreds of people like me). - To that
аватар cgistalker
I have a friend recently paid compensation wb. the whole family under insurance against travel restrictions, since before the flight only he fell ill and had a positive PCR, the whole family did not fly.
Insurance was in the package from the TUI operator
Please note that insurance has a different deductible and this affects the cost.
аватар cgistalker
Before the whole family decided not to fly, they consulted with the insurance company.
The insurance was called European Travel Insurance.
