For many Kenyan travellers, the journey begins long before departure. It starts with planning itineraries, securing visas, and preparing for new destinations. Yet in the complexity of international travel, the most important item you carry is not your passport. It is the protection that travels with you.

At Mayfair Insurance, we believe that understanding your coverage is the first step toward travelling with confidence. Here is a practical guide to what is included in our premium travel insurance policies and why it matters.

1. Global Medical Emergency Support

Health emergencies abroad can be stressful and expensive. A strong travel insurance policy ensures that medical care remains accessible when you need it most.

Medical Expenses and Hospitalisation
Our cover protects you against unexpected medical costs overseas, including emergency treatment, surgery, and prescribed medication. Whether it is a sudden illness or an accident requiring urgent attention, you are protected from significant out-of-pocket expenses.

Emergency Medical Transportation
If specialised treatment is unavailable locally, we cover the real expenses required to transfer you to the nearest suitable medical facility or back to Kenya, where necessary. This ensures that you receive appropriate care without unnecessary delays.

Dental Emergencies
Unexpected dental pain can quickly disrupt a trip. Emergency dental treatment is included to help you remain comfortable until you return home.

2. Logistics, Delays, and Travel Disruptions

Modern travel involves many moving parts, and sometimes plans change unexpectedly. Our coverage helps reduce the financial and logistical impact of disruptions along the way.

Baggage Protection
If your checked luggage is lost, damaged, or stolen, we provide compensation to support recovery. When baggage is delayed, typically for four hours or more, we also reimburse essential purchases such as clothing and toiletries.

Trip Cancellation and Curtailment
If unforeseen circumstances such as illness or a serious family emergency force you to cancel or shorten your trip, we reimburse eligible non-refundable travel expenses so that your plans do not become a financial setback.

Travel Delays and Missed Connections
Flight delays and missed departures can lead to unexpected accommodation and transport costs. Our policy provides financial support to help manage these disruptions with greater ease.

3. Personal Liability and Legal Safeguards

Travel does not remove personal responsibility. For this reason, our policies include protection for unexpected legal situations abroad.

Personal Liability Cover
If you accidentally cause injury to another person or damage their property while travelling, your policy helps cover legal liability costs and protects you from significant financial exposure.

Legal Defence and Expenses
If you require legal representation overseas, excluding traffic-related matters, the policy includes support for legal defence costs and deposits where necessary.

Document Replacement Support
Losing important documents such as your passport can be stressful. We cover the actual replacement costs to help restore essential travel documents quickly and allow your journey to continue with minimal disruption.

Tailored Coverage for Every Traveller

Not every trip is the same, and your insurance should reflect that. Mayfair offers flexible travel insurance tiers ranging from budget-friendly regional cover to comprehensive global protection with higher benefit limits. For travellers heading to Europe, our Schengen travel policies are structured to meet embassy visa requirements and support a smoother application process.

The Mayfair Advantage: 24 Hour Support

What truly sets Mayfair apart isn’t just the list of covers; it’s the delivery. Our 24-hour Emergency Alarm Centre is available every day of the year, providing a direct lifeline to assistance no matter which time zone you find yourself in.

Travel should be about discovery and opportunity, supported by confidence in your protection. By choosing a comprehensive policy with Mayfair Insurance, you are selecting a partner that understands the risks so that you can focus fully on the experience ahead.
