Things to be aware of

Travel insurance vs ticket insurance

When you buy your travel tickets, the company you are buying them from often offers you the chance to add insurance. 

However, this isn't insurance for your whole trip - it is just for that part of your journey. For example, the cost of your flights might include insurance that will cover you if something happens to your flight or while you're in the airport. But you will not be insured for anything else that happens on your trip - before you arrive at the airport, or after you leave it.
