The outbreak of coronavirus had an adverse impact on the travel insurance market. In 2020, the pandemic had a significant impact on the worldwide travel and transportation sector, resulting in a travel disruption. On the other hand, the travel insurance market experienced growth due to the increased demand for travel protection and medical insurance while traveling during the post-pandemic.

In May 2020, Allianz Global Assistance, Canada-based travel assistance, and insurance provider announced the launch of its COVID-19 assistance and insurance coverage, which offers coverage up to USD 1,000,000 for emergency treatment related to COVID-19, along with other benefits. The company distributes the plans through its national distribution channel with the support of over 9,000 insurance brokers and travel agency partners.

Travel insurance is a type of insurance that offers coverage for certain expenditures and damages related to traveling. Trip cancellation, medical emergency, travel delay, and luggage coverage are included in travel insurance policies. The market growth especially post-pandemic is due to stringent rules and regulations imposed by various governments and regulatory authorities on travelers regarding the VISA policy. For instance, in January 2021, visitors to Singapore were required to have travel insurance with coverage for COVID-19-related medical care and hospitalization. The minimum amount of coverage is USD 30,000.
