Does the insurance also apply in respect of business trips?

TravelCover can also be taken out for business trips. Please note however that TravelCover does not provide any cover for business luggage and manual activities that have to be carried out during the trip for professional reasons.
If you are looking for a product that offers cover in this situation also, we recommend our annual product Annual-TravelCover extended with the additional package "Business luggage & manual activity". 

My stay in hospital abroad lasts longer than the originally planned trip – how long does my insurance cover apply?

If you unexpectedly fall ill during an insured trip, we reimburse the costs of inpatient treatment, even if the originally planned end of the trip has already passed, until we can transport you back to Austria.
