What to check and what to do

  1. Save copies of your passport, insurance policy, insurer's emergency number and accommodation address on your phone and separately.
  2. Before an activity or a trip to a remote destination, check your coverage with your insurer and evacuation options with the activity operator.
  3. Ask your accommodation for local clinic details and directions. A group recommendation is not a medical diagnosis.
  4. Share your itinerary and bookings with someone close to you; if your destination changes, let your next accommodation know too.
