Do I need travel insurance? Does the travel insurance also apply in everyday life?

If you are going to travel, it is a matter of course that you have travel insurance. But did you know that travel insurance also applies to and from school and work? This applies in any case if you have NITO Travel Insurance.

It is weekdays that are most common, and you can just as easily be exposed to theft and accidents in the local area, as on holiday abroad. Therefore, it is a good idea to have year-round travel insurance.

As a NITO member, you can buy a top year-round travel insurance at a fixed low membership price for yourself or your family. NITO Travel Insurance has Tryg's best terms and unique benefits such as a travel duration of 90 days, higher sums insured and coverage for more types of damage than a regular travel insurance. 

Applies wherever you go

With NITO Travel Insurance, you are covered on all types of travel, both with and without accommodation, whether you are in Norway or abroad. It also means small journeys, such as to and from work, school and training, and when you go to the store, out with friends or just walk the dog. In short, the insurance applies every time you leave home - no matter where you are going.

Covers you in everyday life

If you are the victim of pickpockets on the public transport, or have your belongings stolen during training, this can be compensated on your travel insurance. Theft of bicycles outside the municipality of residence is covered by up to NOK 40,000 per bicycle.

Should you be unfortunate enough to injure yourself, or be the victim of an accident, you can be reimbursed for costs for transport to the emergency room and treatment expenses with a physiotherapist, dentist or similar. The travel insurance also has coverage for medical disability and death.

Tryg Legehjelp included in the membership

As a NITO member, you always have quick access to a nurse and doctor over the phone or video, 365 days a year. Tryg Medical Assistance is free of charge, and can also be used by members' spouses/cohabitants, and children who belong to the household.

Good to have when traveling

As everyone knows, unforeseen events can happen while traveling that entail extra expenses. Then NITO Travel Insurance is good to have. It covers expenses in the event of delayed departure and late arrival, whether it is a plane, train or other means of transport.

In the event of a travel delay, you will also be able to cover the loss of tickets for events such as concerts, football matches, theatre and the like.

You are also covered for damage to and loss of personal luggage in the event of, for example, theft, robbery and vandalism and expenses incurred in the event of delayed baggage. In addition, loss of tickets, passports and money is covered.

Covers illness and repatriation

One of the most important reasons to buy travel insurance is to be covered for illness while traveling, especially abroad. The costs of hospital stays, treatment and repatriation, for example in the United States, can cost several hundred thousand kroner. These are expenses that NITO Travel Insurance covers.

If you are ill and alone abroad, the insurance also covers travel and accommodation for up to two family members if you need them to come and help you where you are.
