Q: is global rescue required or is standard travel insurance sufficient
While Global Rescue is a highly recommended and specialized travel protection service for adventurers, providing comprehensive medical and security evacuation, it is not strictly "required" by AWS Lodge. However, we strongly advise all our guests to secure robust travel insurance that covers international travel, especially for a hunting trip of this nature.
Standard travel insurance can be sufficient if it includes adequate coverage for:
• Medical emergencies and treatment while abroad.
• Emergency medical evacuation to a suitable medical facility.
• Trip cancellation or interruption due to unforeseen circumstances.
• Lost or delayed baggage.
• Accidental death and dismemberment.
Many hunters prefer services like Global Rescue for their specialized evacuation services, which can be more comprehensive than what standard travel insurance might offer, particularly in remote areas or for specific medical needs during an adventure trip. We recommend reviewing the specifics of any policy to ensure it meets your personal needs and comfort level for an international hunting expedition.
