Solo travel is empowering, enriching and increasingly popular. Whether you’re exploring a new city, embarking on a spiritual journey, or just enjoying your own company, traveling alone offers flexibility and freedom. But it also means you’re entirely responsible for navigating any challenges that arise along the way.
That’s why travel insurance can be especially important for solo travelers. With Arch RoamRight, you don’t have to handle unexpected disruptions alone — even when you’re traveling solo.
🌍 Why Solo Travel Comes With Unique Risks
When you travel with a group, there’s usually someone nearby to help troubleshoot issues. Solo travelers, on the other hand, have to manage everything on their own — from rescheduling flights to finding medical care in unfamiliar cities.
Without a safety net, even small disruptions can become stressful. That’s where Arch RoamRight steps in.
✅ How Arch RoamRight Travel Insurance Helps Solo Travelers
- Emergency Medical Assistance
If you become ill or injured while traveling alone, Arch RoamRight’s emergency medical coverage helps cover the cost of care, up to the limits of your plan. This benefit can be especially valuable in destinations where you don’t speak the language or aren’t familiar with the healthcare system.
- Emergency Evacuation
If you’re in a location without proper medical facilities, Arch RoamRight can arrange and cover evacuation to the nearest appropriate medical center. As a solo traveler, having this kind of support is essential when no one else is there to assist.
- 24/7 Travel Assistance
Arch RoamRight’s 24/7 global assistance team can help you manage emergencies while on the road. From finding medical care and reporting lost passports to navigating local laws, this service is your round-the-clock backup.
Even for non-emergencies — like finding a translator or tracking a delayed bag — the assistance team can help.
- Trip Cancellation and Interruption
If you have to cancel or cut your trip short due to a covered reason, Arch RoamRight may reimburse your unused pre-paid non-refundable payments/deposits. Solo travelers often pay upfront for accommodations, excursions and transportation — and trip protection can help recover those items.
- Baggage Loss and Travel Delays
Losing luggage can be especially challenging when traveling alone. With baggage delay or loss coverage, Arch RoamRight helps you purchase essentials or recover lost items. Similarly, if you face a significant flight delay, travel insurance can reimburse extra costs like meals or overnight stays.
