Polish travel insurance guidance

Entities: Artur Dziekański · Polska Izba Ubezpieczeń · European Health Insurance Card (EKUŻ) · Holafly

Overview

In July 2026 a Polish‑focused travel guide promoted purchase‑online mountain travel insurance, emphasizing coverage for trip cancellation, personal accident and liability, while also marketing platform sandals for summer holidays. A week later, another Polish travel piece highlighted that standard European health coverage leaves significant gaps for trips to Africa, Southeast Asia, South America and Indian Ocean islands. It warned of high medical, evacuation and disease‑related costs, as well as hidden fees such as roaming charges and resort taxes, and urged travelers to obtain supplemental insurance and use cost‑saving tools like eSIM data packages and global cash wallets.
