Comments on: Travel Insurance for winter sports – Don’t step outside without it! http://www.alps-gateway.com/travel-insurance.html Wed, 02 Jun 2010 18:11:19 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Bob http://www.alps-gateway.com/travel-insurance.html/comment-page-1/#comment-80 Bob Mon, 10 Aug 2009 08:06:36 +0000 http://www.alps-gateway.com/?p=391#comment-80 One thing they forgot to mention here is if you’re hiring a car then you should definitely go with a company that insures the car as well. Driving can be dangerous and in a rented car you don’t want to have to pay all the expenses when it’s not even your vehicle. So ask the person at the sales office first. Otherwise you’ll end up wound around a fence post with a broken leg and a huuuuuge car fixing payment to make. Talk about a bad end to a holiday.

I was wondering if anyone knows if you can take out insurance on a bicycle or not. My bikes pretty expensive so I’d like it insured if it gets stolen or if I get into an accident (tho I’m hoping that won’t happen!). Can anyone help me on this? I’ve looked on Google already and it’s hard to find the good websites from the bad ones. This website looked like it could be informative though. Thanks anyone who can give some advice!

Who takes out pet insurance? This is as bad as those dog hairdressers I’ve seen around. Unbelievable. Just leave your dog at a friend’s place and go on holiday. If your friend’s not retarded, your dog should be alright. I mean where does it end? Do you take out insurance for your fish or mice if you go overseas as well? This is ridiculous. What the?

I went one time to go skiing in the Alps and didn’t get any insurance before I hit the slopes. Later on after I slammed into the tree I had to fork over such a large hospital bill. It killed my whole holiday. I’m not doing that again. Next time I’m gonna take out some insurance before I go anywhere. It’s really important to have travel insurance!
