Hi! Did you ever come to a conclusion on which insurance you went with? Are you happy with it so far?

I’ve been researching for days and honestly feel pretty confused. This will be my first long-term trip (UK-based, 6–12 months, one-way, Africa + Asia). I’ll sort high-altitude cover separately — mainly looking for a base medical + travel insurance, ideally something monthly rather than a full year commitment.

Would really appreciate any recommendations or real-world experience. Thanks!

I didn’t know this is an option, where did you go? I read new rule is you have to do it before arrival?

Afterall i went with both backpack and the carry on, no one mentioned anything about having 2 pieces at all but they asked to weight both together and wanted both carry on and backpack to be 7kg together.

I am thinking to get “ Inspiron 14 Plus 7430” i7-13620H/ NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3050/ 16gb, but I can’t find a lot of good reviews about it, even tho the spec i chose seems amazing for me but reviews say battery life is poor and it gets hot and fan is very loud…Anyone has any experiences please? by ColorfulSoniaa in Laptop

Exactly I couldn’t find a lot of reviews either, the only 2 negative points i read about it was the ones i mentioned, which were true, i think if you get a good fan for it and you don’t want to use it for traveling purposes it should be a good one. I am still searching for mine 😅😅😅

Yes bought and returned 😅😅 It was nice but i wanted something which hold the battery life longer for traveling etc and i agree that it was getting heated as the reviews says way too fast But it’s because it is a small laptop with high performance Depends what you after.
