Used to buy aig. Then last two trips tried aviva and upcoming trip trying axa. Good thing about latter is that you can purchase for multiple adults in one transaction. All never claim before though.

It is a good thing that you don't have to claim insurance.

Of course don't claim better . Notice premiums for Thailand has gone up probably due to the recent threat.

I will consider anything $120 and below to be cheap for HK. However, it's so easy to get good accommodation in Taiwan and BKK with less than $100 per day. That alone makes HK damn expensive especially if I go there for a week.

Haha yup ... hk room small, so expensive lol
same as singapore lol ...
however, singapore 4 to 5 stars hotel at least bigger room size as a whole compared to hk ... my opinion

Yeah, I agree that most of my trips are Jetstar but I do get good deals from Tiger from time to time. Only flew once on Scoot so far.
