- Do you need extra insurance to come to Thailand? No, it's not mandatory but you better be safe than sorry. The Insurance we talked about is not only insurance for Thailand or Southeast Asia. It is insurance which covers you in the whole world with only a few exceptions like North Korea. It truly is low-cost and reliable. Without extra cost, you will not only take care of yourself and your loved ones. It is also supporting this channel so we can keep on going as we do 💚

I've been a customer of SafetyWing for a few years now - I had to make a claim once and the whole process was super smooth, highly recommend them! They paid for my visit to the best private hospital in Portugal :)
Perfect! Thanks for sharing your experience! I’m glad it all went smooth. Are you okay though? Hopefully nothing extremely bad happen 🙏
@@Chai_Travel yeah I just had this weird paranoia that something’s wrong with me after the 3rd Moderna shot… to the point that my brain started causing physical symptoms like shortness of breath. They did a ton of detailed diagnostics on my entire body and as soon as all the reports came back saying everything’s perfect, all the symptoms disappeared immediately 55555 our minds are powerful!
Pretty cool experience looking back at it, I’ve never seen my heart valves in 3D before 💓
Hey, champs! Thanks for watching again :D I'm super excited to share my travel Insurance with you. It's truly reliable, fairly priced, flexible, and transparent. It's very easy to sign up for your next journey abroad. 👇 safetywing.com/nomad-insurance/?referenceID=ChaiTravel&ChaiTravel&Ambassador
There's a strong connection between acting sensibly and responsibly when it comes to safety. Driving vehicles or riding motorcycles is probably the most dangerous activity in Thailand due to the unpredictable hazards. I thank the traffic gods for looking after me so well last 8 years. Always insured. Great topic Champ.
Thanks Lars! I totally agree with you. I’ve traveled by minivan yesterday and I think we had like 10 nearly accidents 😅 we’re still alive and luckily no one got hurt! Most of the time it goes without any problems and let’s hope it stays that way 😁 thanks mate
Love how the channel is going from strength to strength with questions and advice from guests. Wish you All the best chai. Was hoping I would run into you in Bangkok while I was there but didn’t happen unfortunately 😊
Thanks Choopa! It’s great to have you watching 😁 aw! Maybe next time 🏆 have a beautiful day and night. Cheers!
Great topic and good info. - thanks for the detailed info my friend 👋👌🙏
Thanks mate 😁 good to see you 🏆 I hope all goes well
Great topic for a video, nice one 👍👍😎😎
Thanks! Have a beautiful day Simo :)
These videos always inspire me to continue pursing my dream of moving overseas. Thanks Chai!
Take care 🙏
That’s so nice to hear Rotimi ❤️ thank you so much for saying that 😁I hope it all works out for you. Stay in touch 🙏
I understand why you are not back in Chiang Mai these days. Must be the fresh air - an environmental factor related to long-term health and quality of life.
As your sponsor is from my country Norway, I know them well. Only thing I can say; look closely at pricing, the policy and details on coverage/exemptions.
Thanks Viktor :) man, Chiang Mai has been very bad this year!
Thanks mate, that’s always good to do 😊
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. It's good to be safe than sorry. It'll be good to be covered by health n travel insurance while travelling.
Thanks Yasin! Most of the time traveling is very safe but you never know :) thanks for watching again 🏆
@@Chai_Travel Thank u. 😀
Thanks for the info ❤ your channel 😎😎😎😎💓💓💓💓
Thanks Leslie :) it’s always nice to see you’re watching
Thumbs up Chai !👍🍀
Thank you ❤️
Interesting topic Chai and it had me thinking about my travels to Thailand over the years. On one trip and staying around the family farm in Lukkae Thailand I went to a local party, got pretty drunk on a mix of beer and the local cheap Thai whisky called Lao Khao. We had loud music happening and I was jumping and dancing around playing my invisible guitar 😂 and a stray dog bit my leg. I had no insurance whatsoever and a deep cut. They stuck me in the back of the village morgue truck and, siren blaring raced me off to hospital. Treated in Banpong Hospital for a very small fee (stitches and a tetanus shot). I guess that must be the difference between attending the big city hospitals and those further out in the rural areas. I'm guessing though breaking a limb would be a different situation and financial outcome, so yes, Travel Insurance a very good idea when travelling overseas. Stay CHAMP 🤩
Wow, it seems you had a wild one! Haha I’m glad it all turned out well and I’m sure you “even you probably would have rather not been bitten”, look back in good memories 😂 thanks for sharing this with us 🏆 cheers mate!
People these days seem to be fixated on insurance. Personally, I never even considered it and looking back it seems that I have saved a huge amount of money by not paying for insurance. Some people need it and use it, I guess, but I think I have a different mindset where I claim responsibility for whatever happens in my life. Very seldom have I had any medical expenses in Thailand and the out of pocket cost was very affordable in my opinion. I have only lived here for 46 years but so far so good.
Gotcha :) I figured as well that medicines like painkillers are very affordable and luckily I’ve also never needed any serious medical care. I think personally it’s a good thing to have but I see why you choose not to get insurance too 🙏 thanks for your input 🏆 cheers
You are super smart to start doing affiliate links like this. I bet you will keep the affiliate link in the description for all you videos, just in case it catches someone's eyes. You raise a great point. We all say how safe Thailand is re crime, but the roads are super hazardous, and as you say, even walking is risky. Not only are there constantly holes in the sidewalk or a portion significantly higher to trip you if you are not looking down, but you have to constantly step into the street (at least in Chiang Mai where I am most experienced) because something, or a merchant, is blocking it. And if the traffic is coming from you at your back, it takes a lot of faith that someone will not run into you. I was surprised you and one interviewee said medical care is expensive in Thailand. Really, $6,000 for a broken arm? That sounds super high for Thailand, even for a private hospital. Safe travels, amigo.
Thanks mate :) again I think Thailand is super safe but yeah 😅 it can get really expensive, really quick. Always trying to stay safe :) have a great day and you to stay champ and stay safe 😊
Scottish guy was funny been here 4 nights and Thailand is definitely safe 😄 😆
Haha yeah but he was just talking about his experience 😜
Hi!Champ.This's my favourite ep. One question I really to know how many % approach that u got successful cooperate from tourists.I meaned tourists give interview.Have a good weekend.take care urself.Champ🎉
Thanks! It was a good one to make. Sometimes it takes 5hours to record and approach 60 people before I’ve enough footage :) it does happens it only takes 2 hours and it takes only 10 people to approach. On average roughly 40 percent wants to talk but I also talk often to people who can not speak English very well so I can not use it as it’s not so pleasant to watch 🙏
I often walk alone at night in Bangkok. I can confirm that Bangkok is really safe
Nice one Oasis :) I’m glad you feel very safe 😃
🤞Everyday is a challenge
Hey chai. I’m still n Bangkok and fell down some steps and cut my face. My Thai friends got me to hospital. No treatment but had some checks. Awaiting the hospital bill but I do have insurance. I’ll let you know the cost.
No way! Bad luck man. I’m glad you’re doing okay now without needed treatment 🙏 what hospital did you go to? Without insurance you normally need to pay before you leave :) I hope the bill is not too expensive 💪 take care mate
@@Chai_Travel it’s all a bit of a mystery. I’ll find out later today where I went. It was my Thai friends who took me so I’ll ask them. Maybe that’s why I was allowed to leave before payment. The hospital know where I’m staying. I’ll have to wait and see I guess.
While dining by beach road . Right before my eyes .I’ve seen this woman buckle on an uneven side walk. Wincing in pain; her hubby had to piggy back her onto an taxi headed to hospital. Ruin vacation. Get insured or good luck with go fund🤕
No way? That’s to bad for the lady! Hopefully her next stay will be a lot better
Don't you have to pay fully up front before sending the bill to SafetyWing? If so, that's not ideal for serious medical emergencies (ex. motorbike accident) for say a $50000+ bill.
Good question! I’ve just checked with the team of SafetyWing. In normal cases you would have to pay upfront but, in cases of emergency you’ll be able to contact them on the chat with pretty much an immediate response. They will able to help you out in case of emergency. They will be able to arrange direct payment in a lot of cases of emergency. So you don’t need to worry you have to pay a 60.000usd fee after your treatment leaving the hospital. You do have a $250.- access fee but that’s all as far I could find out :) I’m a little busy myself but if you have any other questions I’ll definitely able to give you clear answers it may only take a few days to get back to you 😊 thanks for watching 🏆
@@Chai_Travel Wow, thank you for taking the time to contact them. Take care!
No problem Bryan :) have a great day 🏆
Funny enough i am looking for travel insurance as i will be leaving for SEA for 3 months in around a month, your sponsor site seems decently priced but it is very vague on the limits of coverage, how much is covered and what is covered
Perfect! That sound so nice! I hope you’ll make it up to Chiang Mai on your trip ;) and Pai 😃 it’s all described right here; safetywing.com/nomad-insurance check below “Medical insurance includes”
If it’s not there what you’re looking for you also can click further on “read full policy”.
Feel free to ask anything else I maybe able to help you with 😁🏆 cheers!
@@Chai_Travel you have to be signed in to view that information, I was just viewing the site as a guest. I made an account and can see that information now, will go over the coverage to cost value when the trip comes closer. Thanks
Aah perfect! I’m glad you worked it all out 😁 A month is long enough for you to think about your travel insurance 🏆 cheers Belv
I'm the best motorbike driver in the world and even I recommmend wearing helmet. Neurological impairments are nothing to joke around with. Invest in a good helmet which can inflate if you fall of the bike. I remembered and never forget a middle eastern gal young of age that was afraid and calling for her mommy at a neurological unit in Sweden. That's a call no one should be needed to take. Just saying...
Ow wow! Yeah better always wear it 😳 thanks for your story Stassji
Sorry sir. Can i ask u. Im from Malaysia, n how where to buy insuran thailand ? Sorry my language english very bad.
Hi hi, I’ve just checked and you’re able to cover yourself for through this insurance. You’re able to create an account for free to see what your options are. It’s pretty straight forward: safetywing.com/nomad-insurance/?referenceID=ChaiTravel&ChaiTravel&Ambassador
@@Chai_Travel tq sir.
I have ............31.5
Good on you :) I hope it covers you well 😁
Why does the French flight attendant say the hospital cost in Thailand is more expensive than Europe? I would think the opposite.
You would think it’s cheaper in Thailand but a good hospital in Thailand with “Western” standard can be way more expensive.
@@Chai_Travel
Ah I wouldn't know.
It’s still cheaper and better than in some European countries free healthcare in Europe doesn’t mean that you get the best healthcare😅 European hospital workers are really sloppy and lazy in my eyes.
Please get insurance don’t make same mistake as me and forgetting to pay for it then getting severely I’ll 😅
Ow no!? I’m sorry tho hear that 😕 and now? How do you get by?
Safety wings doesn’t work for Americans in Thailand :(
It is working for you as US citizen. Nomad Insurance can cover you worldwide outside your home country except for in the following countries:
Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Russia & Belarus
Select regions of Ukraine: Luhansk, Donetsk, Crimea.
Is it possible to insure other people within your insurance? 😅
Hi miss Ilona ;)
Yes, when you sign up you can also buy insurance for a friend, family or group member. If you are travelling with children, one child older than 14 days, but less than 10 years old, per adult, is included in the insurance without added cost (otherwise, family and group members pay regular price).
That's amazing! Can you add me to your insurance? And may the future be full with kids! ❤️
@@NoonaWorldwide omg 😱 we need to talk in private don’t you think!? 😝 haha see you soon :)
Hahahahaha I think we doooo! See in a bit❤️🤟🏽
it is 310% MORE - for us older people....... NOT a deal. Not expensive, but not a deal
Unfortunately yes, there are higher risk which equals higher fees for older people. 😅 thanks for watching Fugg Uhber 🙏
