Insurance
Insurance benefits from Turva
The travel insurance policy provides cover for union members under 70 years of age. If you turn 70 during your journey, you must have purchased a travel insurance policy for those journey days of the year during which you are 70 years of age or older.
The travel insurance policy covers also the JHL member’s own children, own grandchildren and spouse’s children who are under 15 years old and travel with the member, as well as children who are under 15 years old and who live in the member’s household and travel with the member. This insurance benefit gets even better in the beginning of year 2025, as the age limit of children covered by the insurance rises to under 18-year-olds.
What does travel insurance cover?
Travel insurance covers treatment expenses of an illness or accident that occurs during travel. In addition, the insurance policy covers expenses caused by journey cancellation or interruption and being late for the journey.

Damage to luggage is not covered by travel insurance. Luggage must be insured separately. You should check your home insurance because luggage might be covered by it.
