Pandemic insurance may seem like a good idea as holidays may be canceled, interrupted or you may even get sick. However, it is practical in all travel insurance to have an exclusion clause when a pandemic situation is declared or when having become ill this is due to an infectious disease due to a pandemic.

With this in mind, you can contact your insurance company or travel agency and ask if there is any good insurance in this situation. However, you need to be very careful about purchasing insurance.
