AIRBNB OFFERS RAIN INSURANCE TO TRAVELERS DURING THEIR HOLIDAYS

Airbnb offers rain insurance to travelers
For now, the service is only available in some European countries.
Airbnb, a popular service for renting private accommodations for tourists, continues to expand the range of services it offers its clients.

According to the company’s official website , when renting a home through Airbnb, travelers can now purchase additional rain insurance during their vacation—after all, what could be worse than arriving in a beautiful place only to end up stuck indoors due to heavy rainfall?

Thus, tourists will be able to receive monetary compensation if at least 1.5 mm of precipitation falls per hour during any day of their stay at their place of residence from 08:00 to 20:00 local time (for the minimum number of hours specified in the selected insurance policy).
The amount of payments ranges from 50 to 1000 euros per day (or equivalent in local currency).

The service is currently available to guests residing in Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, and Sweden. Chubb European Group SE is the insurer.
