Where to buy Travel Insurance in Bangkok

[pedro01]

I'm taking the family for a trip around Cambodia next week. I booked it all on booking.com and there was no way to buy insurance for the trip. Anyone know where in Bangkok I can buy insurance for it?

AIG's Travel Guard policy has the highest limits for medical benefits that I've found so far from Thailand-based insurers. Up to thb5 million for their Plan A which also provides repatriation expenses at actual cost.

I've used MISG, AXA, AIG and Chubb in the past. I had a claim only with AIG. The policy included travel delays and they paid me THB10,500 for a 23 hour delay. It was paid pretty quickly. Thankfully, I've had no medical claims. Each policy has different levels of coverage and cost. 

 

If you contact an insurance broker, they can do the looking for you and probably have good insights into people's experience with claims. There is no added cost to you. I use https://www.aainsure.net/ (everything done online/by email) but I'm sure there are others.

I second this recommendation. I use AIG for all of my major trips abroad. Only once did I have to make a claim (I got sick while in Africa and had to visit a fairly expensive clinic - it was either that, or a witch doctor). When I got back to Bangkok, AIG reimbursed me for my expenses quickly, professionally, and fairly, even to the point of using the actual USD/THB exchange rate on the day of my treatment. So I will continue to use them on my future trips.

I was, for a number of years, a very happy AXA customer (premium travel insurance) until I had to make claim...

 

Making the story short, my claim (flight rerouted, flight delays, luggage damaged, items stolen from luggage) took ages to be processed (more than a year) and the “compensation” represented less of 10% of what I was supposed (according to the T&C) to get…
