Interest in overseas travel is increasing these days.
As the quarantine measures for overseas travelers are exempted, this interest is growing, and interest in what to do if you inevitably become infected with Corona 19 while traveling abroad is also increasing.
If you are infected with Corona while traveling and are hospitalized or treated at a local hospital, you can receive compensation through the travel insurance included in the travel package.
An official from the Non-life Insurance Association said, 'Basically, corona is a type of disease, so if you are hospitalized or receive treatment, you will be compensated from overseas medical expenses and collateral such as disease death. ' explains.
However, in the case of the Omicron mutation, which has recently become the dominant species, it is common to take medicine while self-isolating rather than being hospitalized.
It is known that there is no product that guarantees accommodation, food, and disability after-effects for self-quarantine.
There are travel agencies that pay a significant portion of the cost of changing flight schedules or self-quarantine only for package tours, but each travel agency has different internal policies and there are no stipulated rules, so there is potential for disputes.
