Am looking for traveller insurance for Vietnam and US. Is AXA Smart Traveller VIP sufficient?

For US, you'll need to make sure it covers US. It's the most expensive coverage area. Zone 3 or something.

Yeah, I did. Looks OK. Was wondering uf there's some other companies I should be looking at as well. used to do comparison via gobear, seems to not be working for insurance comparison now.

Hmm, Chubb seems to cover Iran. First time I've seen insurance covering Iran. Going to Iran on January.

Chubb is good? Never heard of it to be honest.

Chubb is actually known as ACE Jerneh before this. They had their name changed this year June. Its an American company

Reliable then? If it is then I guess I'm buying it from here instead of getting it in Tehran during arrivals.

Haven't bought my insurance yet for US as well, may consider Chubb if it is reliable.

What are the dates you usually input for travel insurance by the way? Especially for long flights. Say I'm going to the US. Depart KL 11th, transit Saudi Arabia 11-12, reach us 12. Coming back depart US 28, transit Saudi Arabia 29 and reach KL 30.

Do you buy insurance to US from 12-28? Or from 11-30?

Airline insurance is different with comprehensive/full range product. I guess it was cheaper because there is 25% discount  biggrin.gif
They might not be long in the market compared to AIG & AXA but they are competitive. Cathay, Malindo, Tiger air are using Chubb so its up to you to decide if they are reliable  smile.gif
Usually for travel insurance it start to cover you when you depart from home so you will have to enter from 11-30 Oct. Though most of the benefits only start covering you in foreign country but PA start when you depart home..

The only thing probably dissuading me from buying Chubb might be the lack of a rental car coverage. AXA seems to have that.
