Travel Insurance

Travel Insurance

 
Travel insurance is specially recommended in a remote and wild region like Tibet. It is recommended to check whether the policy covers ambulances or an emergency flight home essential in the case of altitude sickness.
It is better to have trip- and flight-cancellation insurance if you are heading to Western or Eastern Tibet as these regions are frequently closed with little to no warning. The announcement for opening is made in March or April each year, but some years the region closes again suddenly after a brief opening, or opens later in the season after a prolonged closure.
