Why it matters
- Indian domestic flight disruption is common in fog and monsoon seasons; auto-payout delay covers (Digit) compensate without claim forms.
- Accident hospitalisation cover travels with you even where your health policy’s network is thin.
- Non-refundable holiday bookings (flights + hotel + Char Dham/wedding blocks) are protected by cancellation cover for a tiny premium.

Buy with a real consultant — not just a checkout form
Our consultants confirm final premiums with the insurer, check the wording against your trip (visa rules, activities, health declarations), and stay on the file for claims help.
How to buy it right
- Skip the airline checkout checkbox and buy a real policy — per-trip domestic covers include hospitalisation and baggage, not just delay vouchers.
- For pilgrimage circuits with elderly travellers, prioritise accident hospitalisation and evacuation benefits over baggage.
- Frequent domestic flyers: a yearly domestic cover beats ticking the checkbox 20 times.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is domestic travel insurance worth it in India?
For a ₹129–300 premium, you get lakhs in accident cover plus delay/cancellation benefits — worth it whenever the trip involves non-refundable bookings or elderly travellers.
Does it cover train travel?
Yes — domestic covers apply to trips by air, rail or road; IRCTC’s ₹0.45 scheme covers rail accidents only, not delays, baggage or hospitalisation.
How do flight-delay auto-payouts work?
Insurers like Digit track your flight; qualifying delays trigger an automatic payout to your account, no claim form or proof needed.
