FAQ's for the Corona supplementary insurance

Unfortunately, this occasionally leads to theft, damage to the luggage or it gets lost during the trip. Since many people understandably do not want to do without their camera, laptop or other valuable electronic devices on vacation, it is worthwhile to have travel luggage insurance.
