Have a worry-free holiday when you buy travel insurance
“Make sure to be careful, okay!” says every parent to us when we’re about to head off for a holiday, whether it’s in Singapore or beyond. That said, it’s always advisable to arm yourself with travel insurance just in case you encounter any misadventures.
It includes medical coverage for cruises to nowhere
