With travel insurance in hand, you can enjoy a vacation, events, or time off with peace of mind. Whenever you are traveling in Switzerland or abroad and you find yourself in a bind, it will bail you out. For example, if your RV dies on you. Or if you get food poisoning.
But travel insurance also covers the costs for travel by air, rail, bus, or rental car, as well as for accommodation if you have to cancel your travel or open air festival plans. Regardless of whether you break a leg two days before your vacation starts. Because your employer doesn’t approve the time off when you’ve already booked a vacation. Or because there is unrest at your vacation destination.
Travel insurance is also worthwhile for:
Cancellation costs insurance and personal assistance insurance give you coverage worldwide. With vehicle assistance insurance, you are covered while traveling in Europe.
Good to know: It doesn’t matter how many travel plans you have per year or how long you will travel for. You are covered in every case, 365 days a year. Even a semester abroad, for example with Erasmus exchange programs, are covered up to one year.
Yeah! If you miss a concert or festival because of illness or accident, you get your money back.
How is travel insurance structured? Who pays for medications and hospital costs if I get sick while I’m on vacation? And is it worth it to get temporary travel insurance? Find out all this and more in our explanatory video. Play the movie!
Depending on where you are planning on traveling to or how long your time off will last, the following supplementary insurance policies may be right for you:
myAXA client portal: Manage documents, upload invoices, or change your personal data – whenever and wherever you want. Say goodbye to paperwork!
We are Switzerland's number one insurer: We provide excellent services, personal advice, and individual insurance protection.
Attractive discounts: Benefit from a one-time discount of CHF 30 when you take out household contents, personal liability, or cyber insurance.
If you become sick or have an accident before or during your travel, AXA’s travel insurance covers the costs of air, rail, bus, or rental car, as well as for accommodation.
INTERTOURS also covers the costs if you can’t start your journey or have to reschedule – for example, due to an illness or death in the family, your deputizing coworker being absent, or you starting a new job and there being a ban on taking leave.
A bike accident in Fuerteventura or appendicitis in Vietnam: What happens if you have an emergency during vacation? Then AXA’s international health insurance covers the costs for all medically necessary treatment as well as any rescue and transportation costs related to an accident. AXA travel insurance including medical coverage has to be taken out separately, as it is not a component of INTERTOURS.
Important: Without this supplementary insurance, you must pay higher expenses yourself. Mandatory basic insurance covers only up to twice the costs that would be incurred in Switzerland.
Our travel insurance also comes into effect if your pet gets sick and you can’t travel or go on vacation for that reason.
No, your luggage is not included in your travel insurance. If your luggage is lost or stolen, INTERTOURS will provide you with an advance if you lose your ID or tickets and will pay for additional costs for transportation and accommodation.
If your luggage is lost or damaged in transit, be sure to report it to the carrier. If it is stolen, you must also report the theft to the nearest police station.
Our household contents insurance offers comprehensive luggage protection.
You can also take out our insurance after booking travel and are then insured provided the event has not yet taken place at the time the contract is concluded.
