Every person planning to spend their holidayson holiday abroad, of course, thinks only about how well he will spend time and have fun. However, the reality is that sometimes life presents unexpected and very unpleasant surprises, and rest turns into a real test. For example, on the way to the beach, you stumbled and broke your leg. In this case, you will need emergency medical care. But the services of a doctor to a foreign citizen are far from free and cost a lot of money. Therefore, reasonable tourists, before going "over the hill", prefer to visit a reliable insurance company and take advantage of the services offered by it.
ETS - insurance company
Today in the Russian Federation, the “EuropeanTravel Insurance ”is the only company specializing in travel insurance. Over the years of its existence, the company managed to fall in love with millions of Russian tourists loyal to it. European Travel Insurance is one of the twenty members of the so-called ETI group. The offices of insurance companies that are part of European Travel Insurance are located in the capitals of many European countries and have been operating successfully for many years. The Munich Reinsurance Group is the 100% holder of ETS shares. In Moscow, the ETSO Joint-Stock Insurance Company began its activities in 2006.
The history of the emergence and formation of the "ETC"
At the origins of the company "EuropeanTravel Insurance ”is the idea of the Hungarian Max von Engel, which arose in him thanks to one interesting event that happened to him in 1905. In one of the hot summer evenings, he and his son had been waiting for 15 years on the platform of the Lucerne train station. Suddenly, out of the pipe of a locomotive, unexpectedly, a spark flew out of the tube, which fell directly on Engel's suitcase. Fortunately, the suitcase remained safe and sound. But it could have happened differently: he could easily catch fire, and with important documents, personal belongings, souvenirs one could say goodbye. And who would answer for this? And after all the fire at the station is not the only trouble that can happen to travelers. It was this thought that Engel visited at that moment. He thought: "It would be nice if people had the opportunity to insure their luggage." Engel shared this reasoning with his friend, the head of the Munich Reinsurance Society, Carl von Tim. The result was the opening on May 9, 1907 of the European Luggage Insurance Company. More than a hundred years have passed since then, however, European Travel Insurance continues to take care of travelers and considers this its priority.

European Travel Insurance Companydiffers from other insurance companies by a wide choice of services offered to tourists, among which every traveler can find what best suits his needs, ranging from insurance policies to guaranteeing assistance in the event of a terrorist attack.

As for the insurance of long-term trips, the European Travel Insurance company offers tourists the Multi Trip program and the equally well-known Business Trip program.
The duration of the program "BusinessTrip "is one year old. A tourist can travel an unlimited number of times, but the period of one trip should not exceed 91 days.
