Standard vs Explorer vs Explorer Plus Plans

Why three travel insurance plans and what’s the difference?

    As featured in:

  • As featured in:

No two travelers are the same, so why should travel insurance be one-size-fits-all?

You might be at the ski lodge in Queenstown or Sapporo, and half your crew are heading to the café while you hit the slopes. Or maybe your sister always rents a car when she travels, while you prefer to bus it. World Nomads offers three plans with different levels of cover so you can choose one to suit your needs.

Three plans to choose from

World Nomads offers three plans – a Standard Plan. an Explorer Plan and an Explorer Plus Plan – each with different benefits, limits and sub-limits of coverage.

  • Standard Plan: Includes a range of benefits such as overseas emergency medical, cover for your belongings, pre-trip cancellation and certain adventure activities.

  • Explorer Plan: Has all the benefits of a Standard Plan and a few more, including COVID coverage, plus higher coverage limits and/or sub-limits. 

  • Explorer Plus Plan: Has all the benefits of the Standard and Explorer Plans, with the highest coverage limits and/or sub-limits of all three plans.

Please choose carefully from the outset, as you can’t upgrade from a Standard Plan to an Explorer or Explorer Plus Plan mid-trip. 

An easy way to see the differences is in the coverage summary when you get an instant online quote. The quote page will also tell you how much each plan costs and has links to the policy wording, which details the coverage in full. For Brazilian residents, we partner with Chubb to administer our plans, emergency assistance and claims. 


Which plan should I choose?

That’s your decision to make. Ask yourself, how much coverage will you need if something goes wrong? Only you know where you’re planning to go, how much you paid, what you’re planning to do, see and visit, and how your personal situation might influence your choice.

This is only a summary of cover and does not include the full terms and conditions of the policy. You should read your policy wording in full so you understand what is and isn’t covered. That way there won’t be any surprises if you need to use it. If you have any questions, please get in touch.

True Claims Stories

  • Never travel without insurance. This was the first time I ever purchased travel insurance and I am so glad I did. A few days into my trip to Spain I twisted my foot heading down to the metro. Thanks to World Nomads I was able to get medical attention in Spain and since, as luck would have it, I had a fracture that required surgery, they got me a flight home the next day. Filing a claim was surprisingly easy and when the claim was finally processed, I was reimbursed for all of my expenses including things like the extra week in the hotel I didn't get to take advantage of.

Por que contratar um seguro viagem?

Quer saber mais sobre Seguro Viagem e o que ele pode fazer por você?

    As featured in:

  • As featured in:

Na maioria dos casos, não ocorrem problemas em viagens. No entanto, as contas médicas podem ser exorbitantes se você sofrer um acidente ou ficar doente inesperadamente no exterior. Só por isso, o Seguro Viagem vale a pena.

Listamos três coberturas essenciais que são muito procuradas, mas há muitas outras - faça uma cotação para ver a nossa lista de coberturas!

Cobertura médica e regresso sanitário

Se existe um grande motivo para contratar um Seguro Viagem, é esse! Em muitos casos, se você ficar doente, o hospital não o tratará sem pagamento antecipado ou comprovante de uma apólice de seguro.

O Seguro Viagem World Nomads pode cobrir despesas médicas no exterior, incluindo:

  • Hospitalização
  • Tratamento ambulatorial (sem internação)
  • Medicamentos prescritos
  • Transporte para voltar para casa para tratamento contínuo, se decidirmos que é clinicamente necessário

Esta não é uma lista completa sobre o que está, ou não, coberto pelo Seguro Viagem. Limites e condições se aplicam em diversos casos e podem variar dependendo do plano que você adquirir e do seu histórico médico. Para mais informações, leia atentamente o Manual do Segurado antes de adquirir o produto e veja todas as condições, coberturas, limites e riscos excluídos.

Cancelamento de viagem

Cancelar a sua viagem pode acontecer nos momentos em que você menos espera. Quando você começa a pagar por suas passagens aéreas e acomodações, já faz sentido proteger o seu investimento comprando um Seguro Viagem. Todos os nossos planos podem ajudar a reaver alguns custos não reembolsáveis que você terá se você não puder viajar porque:

  • você ficou doente ou seriamente machucado
  • um parente próximo ficou doente ou seriamente machucado
  • você foi demitido, sem justa causa

Bagagem

As malas podem ser extraviadas  e os pertences podem ser roubados. A perda de objetos pessoais é uma das principais razões pelas quais as pessoas contratam Seguro Viagem. Apesar do rastreamento, códigos de barras e de todo o processo envolvido, não é tão incomum que uma ou duas malas se desviem dos voos. Esperamos que não seja a sua.

E se for, nossos planos podem ajudá-lo na perda, roubo ou dano quando a sua bagagem foi devidamente entregue aos cuidados da companhia aérea. Nós também podemos cobrir itens essenciais se a sua mala estiver atrasada - pense em produtos de higiene pessoal, roupa íntima, uma camisa limpa e algumas meias.

Não se esqueça de ler o Manual do Segurado para ver todos os detalhes, não pense que seus pertences estarão cobertos em qualquer situação, pois condições ou exclusões podem ser aplicáveis.

Este é apenas um resumo da cobertura e não inclui os termos e condições completos. Você deve ler o Manual do Segurado para entender o que está e o que não está coberto. Dessa forma, não haverá surpresas se você precisar usar qualquer cobertura. Em caso de dúvidas, entre em contato conosco.

Apendicite em Chiang Mai.

Gostaria que todos soubessem da minha gratidão por toda a ajuda que recebi da World Nomads em um dos momentos mais dolorosos e assustadores da minha vida. Nunca pretendi usar o meu seguro e nunca usei em nenhuma das minhas viagens anteriores, mas desta vez uma dor de estômago repentina e insuportável me forçou a ir ao hospital enquanto estava na Tailândia (Chiang Mai Ram Hospital). Eu pensei que conseguiria o antibiótico certo e final da história. Mas não, o caso real foi que meu apêndice estava inflamado e infectado. A única maneira de lidar com isso era realizando uma cirurgia. Eu simplesmente não podia acreditar! Foi assustador, eu estava sozinho e eles foram incríveis, responderam imediatamente por e-mail, o que foi fantástico, porque eu não tinha tempo para fazer telefonemas. E junto dos Serviço Internacional de Pacientes do Hospital, cuidaram de tudo e salvaram a minha vida. Eu só quero que todos estejam cientes da importância de ter um seguro, e um bom, mesmo que pensem que são saudáveis e que nada de ruim vai acontecer, coisas inesperadas acontecem o tempo todo e isso pode arruinar a sua diversão e a sua conta bancária. Estou muito agradecido por ter meu seguro World Nomads sempre ao meu lado.

Why buy travel insurance?

Learn more about travel insurance and what it does.

    As featured in:

  • As featured in:

In most cases, traveling goes without a hitch. Yet, medical bills can be crippling if you’re accidently injured or unexpectedly ill overseas. For that alone, travel insurance is worth it.

We’ve listed three of the main things people want cover for, but there are many more – have a look at our list of benefits!

Medical and medical evacuation

If there’s one big reason to buy travel insurance, this is it. In many cases, if you get sick, the hospital won’t treat you without upfront payment or providing proof of an insurance policy.

World Nomads travel insurance can cover overseas medical expenses including:

  • Hospitalisation
  • Out-patient treatment (no hospital admission)
  • Prescribed medicines
  • Transport to get you home for ongoing treatment if we decide it's medically necessary

This is not a full list of what's covered. There are limits and conditions that apply, so for more information read your policy carefully before you buy.

Cancellation

Have to cancel your trip can't happen at the times you least expect it. When you start paying for your airfares and accommodation, it only makes sense to protect what you've spent in case you can't travel. All of our policies can help cover flights and accommodation if:

  • You become sick or injured
  • A close relative becomes sick or injured

Baggage

Bags go missing from airline check-ins and things get stolen too. Loss of personal belongings is one the main reasons people buy travel insurance. Despite tracking, barcodes and all the rest of it, it’s not all that uncommon for a bag or two to go astray on flights. Hope it’s not yours.

If it is, our policies can help you for loss, theft or damage when your bag is checked in with a carrier. We can also cover you essential items if your bag is delayed – think toiletries, undies, a clean shirt and some socks. 

Don’t forget to read the policy wording when you hit the quote button as all plans are different – don’t just assume your gear is covered in every situation, as conditions or exclusions may apply.

This is only a summary of cover and does not include the full terms and conditions of the policy. You should read your policy wording in full so you understand what is and isn’t covered. That way there won’t be any surprises if you need to use it. If you have any questions, please get in touch.

Acidente de bicicleta nos Estados Unidos

Como cuidamos deste cliente quando fraturou as costelas nos EUA

Eu estava andando de mountain bike numa trilha quando uma árvore apareceu no meu caminho. Com o impacto, o guidão da minha bicicleta torceu, se projetando abruptamente nas minhas costelas antes de eu sair voando. Eu senti muita dor, mas não haviam contusões externas, nada aparente. Eu imaginei que mesmo que eu tivesse quebrado uma costela, não havia nada que alguém pudesse fazer, por isso não eu procurei atendimento médico. Duas semanas depois eu ainda estava com a mesma dor de quando o acidente ocorreu - e sentia muitas dores na região do adbômen. Quando eu comecei a ter espasmos musculares ao redor das costelas, eu comecei a me preocupar e achar que algo estava errado, então fui para o hospital mais próximo onde fui informado de que eu tive várias costelas fraturadas.

Eu estava viajando pela Bolívia quando eu tive uma forte dor de cabeça e meu corpo parecia estar congelando apesar do calor que estava fazendo lá fora.

Uma lesão no joelho nos EUA

Como cuidamos deste nômade quando se machucou esquiando nos EUA

Eu deveria ter encerrado o meu dia e ter ido para o bar beber algum drink para me aquecer, mas não, decidi descer a montanha mais uma vez. Enquanto eu descia, meu esqui esquerdo se chocou com o direito. O choque acabou lesionando o meu joelho esquerdo e fazendo com que eu rolasse montanha abaixo por algum tempo. Quando eu parei de rodar e capotar pela montanha, percebi que não podia me mover. A minha sorte é que outra pessoa estava passando pelo local e chamou os socorristas da estação de esqui que chegaram rapidamente.

Um aneurisma cerebral na Suíça

Como ajudamos quando este cliente precisou ser hospitalizado com urgência

Sou jovem e nunca imaginei que acabaria no hospital correndo risco de vida. Sem aviso prévio, enquanto viajava pela Suíça, tive um aneurisma cerebral, que é uma dilatação anormal de uma artéria no cérebro e quando explode, pode resultar em um acidente vascular cerebral.

Foi uma experiência assustadora.

Eu fui hospitalizado, passei por uma cirurgia e fiquei com atendimento especializado por dez dias. Depois disso foram algumas semanas de recuperação em Zurique antes de poder voltar para casa. A World Nomads cuidou de mim e levou meus pais para ficar comigo enquanto eu me recuperava..

Here are our most frequently asked questions about claims. You can also find the answers to other questions in our Helpdesk or you can ask the customer service team

  • What can I claim for?
    To give you an idea, some of the things can claim for are: overseas medical expenses, medical evacuation, cancellation costs, emergency dental treatment, luggage and personal effects.
  • Can I make a claim whilst I'm away?
    Absolutely! We understand that you might be away for extended periods of time, so our online claims system allows you to submit claims and liaise with our claims people while you are still travelling. Simply log in to your membership page to start the process and follow the prompts to submit your claim.
  • Can I wait until I get home to make a claim?
    Yes, of course you can! Provided the incident you are claiming for took place while you were travelling and your policy was valid at the time, you can wait until you return home to submit your claim if this is easier.....no problem at all!
