I'm also thinking about the fact that the OIC approved the cover being used as a defense as well. Which does speak well to the OIC's review processes.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was cheapest for me at that time. Emirates had a great airplane too., nicest flight ever. The other cool features that i can change the return flight up to 36 months later!

It is incredibly limited. Basically, you shouldn't be profiting from basic human needs such as healthcare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also like to know whether there were any external influences brought to bear on the decision. Personal accident policies with a "hospital cash" benefit have been around for a long time, but the payout of 100,000 baht for a positive test is very high. Something like 1,000 baht per day for each day of mandatory quarantine would have been better aligned with this market. Something does not seem right.

Don't roll the dice if you cant pay the price... ???? What is instead folks had not bought insurance then asked you for coverage? It is no different than you SELLING insurance then balking at your losses You bet...you lost 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's worse than that. The insurance is only for a 6 month ticket. But the return flight ticket i can change for up to 36 months from Dubai. I will have to get new travel insurance next month for $100 a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
