Since 2020, everyone has been stuck in their homes for the most part. Travelling had become a far-fetched reality for a while, but thankfully things are slowly opening up. The vaccination drives and the new emerging data and research have slowly helped the world tide over the Covid-19 wave. However, with new variants like Delta and now Omicron, a lot still needs to be done.
The eagerness to travel is justified, and the urge to visit a new city and culture is a much-needed respite from the mental stress and turmoil. But it is also essential to take precautions, visit uninfected areas only, get vaccinated, and always travel with travel insurance.
Sanitiser, soap, masks, gloves, etc., are some must-haves you cannot do without these days. So, no matter where you go, and however secluded or deserted the destination may be, always wear a mask. Keep in mind that your goals should not just be to protect yourself but also to protect those around you and not be a carrier of the virus. In addition to this, if you are travelling on a train, sanitise your berth before you sit or sleep on it. You can also carry your sheets or a neck pillow if possible while travelling in buses or trains. Also, remember to put on your mask during the entire journey. If you are travelling by air, wear the mask at all times, along with a shield. Airplanes are confined with a lot of people sitting close to each other. The chances of transmission are higher here. So, being mindful, your safety is paramount.
Vaccination is the only weapon at this point against Covid-19. And even though not much is known about the vaccine's efficacy against new variants like Omicron, they are still extremely important. Before you travel, make sure that you get both shots of the vaccine. Currently, there are two vaccines available in India – Covishield and Covaxin. You can opt for either one, based on the availability. If you are travelling abroad, check if the destination country accepts the vaccine you have received. If you are travelling with your family or friends, ensure that the entire group has been vaccinated. It is also essential to leave a gap of a few days before your last vaccine shot and your travel. After getting the shot, some people may experience fatigue, fever, and headache. So, it may not be advisable to travel right away. You may consult a doctor for more information on the same.
The first thing to keep in mind is to not travel to a place that has been infected with the new variants like Omicron. Try to avoid travelling to such destinations unless necessary. If you do happen to visit an infected area, make sure to cover your mouth and nose with a mask. Some doctors also advise wearing two masks. If it can be avoided, pick a safe destination for your travel. Small towns and cities that have not been as severely exposed to Covid-19 can be a safer option. You would be more comfortable moving around safely here as well, without having to worry about your health. However, it would help if you also were vaccinated so as to not infect those in small towns. A few days before your travel, keep checking the statistics and news of the area. If there is a spike in the number of cases, consider cancelling or postponing your trip. Remember that your safety is the most important.
The most important thing to have while travelling in both pre-and post-Covid-19 times is travel insurance. Travel insurance can be beneficial in many ways. It can help you in diverse situations like medical emergencies and sickness while also covering emergency evacuations, theft or loss of personal belongings, and trip cancellation. In present times, travel insurance is also crucial as it covers the expenses borne out of Covid-19 related health concerns. So, if you face any of these issues, you can comfortably rely on your travel insurance plan and rest assured that some financial help is readily available.
Your Travel Insurance Must Include
Travel insurance is a must when travelling. However, it is also vital to pick the right travel insurance plan. Only a comprehensive plan that covers all kinds of situations can offer you complete protection. Before you purchase a travel insurance plan, make sure to check for the following features:
Travelling can be relaxing, calming, and also liberating in many ways. However, you must plan for it in advance for it to be so. In addition to this, given the circumstances, you must also be mindful of taking all safety precautions. Wearing a mask, washing your hands often, and sanitising your hands and frequently used objects like wallets, phones, etc., is fundamentally important. Travelling without a good travel insurance plan is also highly discouraged. So, make sure to get travel insurance before you set sail to explore the world.
