In a perfect world, you'd never need travel protection. However, the reality is you never know when something could disrupt your trip.

1. You get injured and hospitalised overseas
Protect yourself from excessive medical bills and be rest assured that you’re in good hands wherever you go. With MHinsure, you’ll receive a fixed daily hospitalization allowance if you’re admitted due to accident or sickness. Any cost occurred for an emergency medical repatriation back to Malaysia and follow-up treatments back home are covered too!

2. Flight delays, cancellation or disruption
It may frustrate you when your dream vacation is interrupted with unforeseen circumstances. Not to worry, MHinsure covers you up to RM300 for every 5 hours of flight delays, cancellation or disruption.

5. A natural disaster strikes your destination
In the unfortunate event that you get caught up in any natural disaster, your travel protection can make things better in providing emergency evacuation or medical care, depending on the situation.

6. Accident or illness forces you to cancel your trip
With MHinsure, you can receive monetary reimbursement worth up to your total trip value under trip cancellation benefits if you or your family members are unfit to travel or hospitalized due to either accident or illness.

It’s normal to be concerned of your home security when you’re away. Travel worry-free as MHinsure covers damages to your home in the case of robbery and loss to your home contents.
