Some credit cards do offer travel insurance too if the tickets are charged using the cards. What would be the difference between such travel insurance compared to the ones provided by AA and AXA? Would it be sufficient to just rely on the credit card's travel package?

Example:

I have purchased AirAsia Insure Return Cover for International but am confused over their policy (attached). The insurance covers accidents occured during the flight/inside airport only, or within the travelled country too? Please help. Thanks

Good question. I also would like to know if my flight departs at 11:45PM and arrives at 6:30AM the next day, do I consider the 'next day' when purchasing the travel insurance?

When there is a delay from the scheduled departure time, what is the normal procedure to claim from our travel insurance? what documents/evidence that need to be provided?

How long is the delay? According the normal terms, if it's less than 6 hours, it cannot be claimed. That's what I got when I flew 2 weeks ago. My flight was eventually cancelled and I was given a new flight instead by the company. For my issue, I had a valid claim as I was given a diff flight from what I had on my initial flight.

just a hypothetical question, just in case. yes, let's say it is delayed more than 6 hours, how do we prove it to the insurance company?

Ask the airlines to print you a piece of paper regarding the new scheduled time. It'll be better if you can get the verification straight from the airport staffs. Just let them know that you want to claim travel insurance, they'd know what to do.

alright thanks for the guidance

Recently my domestic flight in Philippines got cancelled and that caused me to miss my flight back to KL as well. I got the airline to print out a letter stating that the flight got cancelled. The airline put me on the next available flight and settled all connecting flight with no extra charges. The delay was about 17 hours to reach KL.

When I went back, I fill up the claim form for travel delay and flight misconnection. Emailed them the claim form, the domestic and international flight boarding passes, the two flights booking itineraries, the delay letter, copy of my passport and stated my policy number. Got back few hundred bucks from AXA for the whole thing with no further questions asked.
good to know. thanks for sharing the experience

hows the process online? fast? reliable?

Most of the time, the policy is emailed within 1-2 days. Reliable as far as I am concerned. Used this for the past 5-6 trips.

If you make that many trips per year you should buy the annual policy instead of buying for each and every trip.

what are the major and obvious differences using credit card to pay for flight which include free travel insurance, compare with the travel insurance provided by the airlines - example AA provides TuneInsurance.

Obvious reason, it comes with the cc so no need to pay extra. Having said that, i always purchase a proper travel insurance from companies like msig axa etc

I have to ask these because I haven't used any proper travel insurance agency before. I did brief browsing for AXA and AIG. Have you used AIG before?

I have bought from msig and axa..claimed with axa before.

download the form from the link above and submit to the nearest branch.

refer to the T&C, will state what documents are required. for example, itemized bill for medication.
