Omniasig extinde acoperirea asigurării de călătorie Safe Travel

Pentru că românii se orientează în ultima perioadă mai mult către vacanțe în țară, Omniasig a extins acoperirea poliței de asigurare Safe Travel și pentru călătoriile în România.

Susținem astfel turismul local, serios afectat în ultimele luni, și ne adaptăm produsele de asigurare la contextul actual, în care pandemia a determinat transformarea modului în care călătorim, fie că este vorba de călătoriile profesionale sau de cele în scop turistic, arată asigurătorul, într-un comunicat de presă.

Astfel, asigurarea Safe Travel, care anterior acoperea doar riscurile de călătorie în străinătate, include acum și acoperiri pentru călătoriile în România. Safe Travel are un cost foarte accesibil și este disponibilă în două pachete de asigurare, Premier și Premier Plus, în funcție de nevoile asiguratului.

Conform pachetului ales, persoana care călătorește beneficiază de acoperirea tuturor evenimentelor neplăcute ce pot apărea în orice călătorie, chiar și în România. Astfel, asigurarea de călătorie Safe Travel acoperă, pe teritoriul țării noastre:

• asistența medicală de urgență, în caz de accident sau îmbolnăvire pentru serviciile medicale efectuate în ambulatoriu, în limitele prevăzute în planul de asigurare. În plus, asistența medicală de urgență se poate face și de la distanță, prin intermediul serviciilor de telemedicină.
• asigurarea bagajelor, în caz de deteriorare în timpul transportului acestora la cală sau prin alte metode de transport pentru bagaje, precum și în caz de deteriorare ca urmare a unui accident.
• răspunderea civilă personală, în cazul unor daune provocate terților.
• anularea sau întreruperea călătoriei – acoperă costurile pentru serviciile plătite, în caz de imposibilitate de continuare a călătoriei.
• tranzacții frauduloase cu cardul sau pierderea acestuia, în timpul călătoriei.
• franșiza CASCO rent-a-car – acoperă franşiza aplicabilă în baza unei poliţe de asigurare CASCO încheiată pentru autovehiculul închiriat în timpul călătoriei
• animalele de companie deținute de asigurat și lăsate în perioada călătoriei în grija pensiunilor de profil, rudelor sau prietenilor – sunt acoperite costurile pentru întreținerea animalelor de companie care ar putea să apară în cazul în care persoana asigurată trece printr-un eveniment ce necesită prelungirea călătoriei.
• clauza servicii domestice despăgubește costurile cu serviciile de curățenie și/sau menaj necesare după întoarcerea din călătorie a asiguratului care a dobândit o invaliditate ca urmare a unui accident.
• sporturile de agrement – sunt despăgubite costurile de reparare sau înlocuire a echipamentelor sportive, precum și costurile de închiriere ale acestora dacă cele deținute de asigurat sunt avariate sau întarziate în tranzit.

Și pentru că riscurile asociate turismului nu țin cont de vârstă, limita superioară de vârstă pentru acoperirea standard oferită de acest produs a fost extinsă până la 95 de ani. Compania precizează că pentru asistenţă și suport permanent, asigurații pot apela oricând Call Center-ul OMNIASIG, 021.201.90.31, imediat după ce s-a întâmplat incidentul.

Safe Travel este o asigurare complexă de călătorie și se poate încheia atât pentru călătorii în România, cât și în străinătate – în Europa și/sau în spațiul non-UE. Pe lângă acoperirea principală reprezentată de asistența medicală în caz de accident sau îmbolnăvire, Safe Travel oferă posibilitatea de a alege acoperiri suplimentare dedicate unor situații ce pot apărea în timpul călătoriei, de la pierderea, distrugerea, deteriorarea, furtul și întârzierea bagajelor, pierderea sau furtul documentelor, întreruperea sau anularea călătoriei, ratarea plecării, tranzacții frauduloase, echipament sportiv, până la acoperiri privind animalele de companie lăsate acasă sau servicii domestice oferite la întoarcerea în România dacă în străinătate asiguratul a suferit un accident.

Asigurarea complexă de călătorie Safe Travel este configurată sub formă de pachete, care includ de la 2 până la 13 acoperiri. Beneficiile și acoperirile variază în funcție de tipul pachetului de asigurare selectat.

„Alături de partenerul nostru BCR, lucrăm constant pentru a face asigurările cât mai accesibile și simplu de înţeles, astfel, integrarea produsului Safe Travel în aplicația George este un alt pas spre realizarea obiectivului nostru, acela de a veni în sprijinul clienților cu soluții digitale rapide pentru evenimente neprevăzute. Safe Travel este un produs digital, care, prin parcurgerea unui număr mic de pași, oferă protecția mult dorită. Din grijă pentru clienții noștri, ne-am adaptat și am reușit să dezvoltăm una dintre cele mai accesibile și complexe polițe de asigurare de călătorie disponibile pe piață în acest moment”, a declarat Costi Stratnic, Vicepreședinte Directorat OMNIASIG Vienna Insurance Group

Acoperirile de bază ale Safe Travel sunt:

– Asistența medicală de urgență, prin acoperirea cheltuielilor necesare generate de producerea unui accident (inclusiv în timpul practicării unui sport de agrement) sau îmbolnăvirea asiguratului, (pentru călătoriile în România, se acopera doar costurile consultațiilor la distanță); – Asigurarea bagajelor in caz de pierdere, distrugere, deteriorare, furt și întârziere (doar pentru călătoriile în străinătate);

Pe langa acestea, în funcție de pachetul de acoperiri ales si de condițiile de asigurare aplicabile, clienții pot beneficia și de: – Răspunderea civilă pentru prejudiciile înregistrate de terţe persoane sub forma pagubelor la bunuri şi/sau vătămărilor corporale în timpul călătoriei. – Întreruperea călătoriei, ce acoperă costurile ocazionate de întreruperea călătoriei și întoarcerea mai devreme în România ca urmare a decesului soţului/soţiei sau al unei rude de gradul I sau II sau distrugerea/devastarea locuinţei asiguratului sau a sediului în care acesta îşi desfăşoară propria afacere, rezultând din incendiu, explozie, calamităţi naturale sau furt prin efracţie, produse în perioada călătoriei şi care fac necesară prezenţa la domiciliu a acestuia. – Despăgubiri pentru distrugerea, avarierea sau furtul echipamentelor sportive deţinute sau închiriate în perioada de asigurare şi în timpul călătoriei; – Asistență permanentă în cazul apariției unor evenimente neplăcute întâmpinate în timpul călătoriei (doar pentru călătoriile în străinătate), prin: suport acordat pentru spitalizarea şi/sau repatrierea asiguratului ori întoarcerea în România a copiilor minori, transmitere de mesaje către rudele, colegii sau prietenii din România ai asiguratului.

Lista completă a serviciilor pe care Safe Travel le acoperă este disponibilă pe site-ul OMNIASIG, în două secțiuni distincte, destinate călătoriilor în România și în străinătate.

Prețurile asigurărilor sunt stabilite în funcție de destinația călătoriei, tipul de pachet de asigurare selectat și profilul asiguratului. Indiferent de pachetul ales, primele de asigurare au costul stabilit în lei şi se plătesc la data emiterii poliţei, anticipat şi integral, prin debitarea automată a contului clientului. Polița trebuie emisă înainte de plecarea în călătorie. Adaptată şi pentru persoanele care călătoresc frecvent, asigurarea Safe Travel oferă acoperire pentru toate deplasările în scop turistic sau de afaceri efectuate de asigurat în teritoriul precizat şi în perioada asigurată, cu optimizarea primei de asigurare şi eficientizarea timpului – o singură poliţă, multiple călătorii acoperite. De asemenea, OMNIASIG Vienna Insurance Group oferă asistență continuă în cazul evenimentelor neplăcute întâmpinate în timpul călătoriei.

Lansarea Safe Travel în magazinul George completează eforturile BCR de a pune la dispoziție procese rapide și experiențe plăcute inclusiv pentru achiziționarea produselor de asigurare, alături de celelalte produse și servicii de daily-banking disponibile pe platformă. În prezent, George oferă fluxuri de achiziție 100% online și pentru Multi Protect – o asigurare ce acoperă protecția bunurilor personale și a instrumentelor de plată, Venit Protect – o asigurare ce oferă protecție financiară în cazul unor evenimente neprevăzute: incapacitate temporară de muncă, șomaj, spitalizare, invaliditate sau deces, precum și pentru Garant Amplus – o asigurare pentru locuință și bunurile din ea, care include și asistență tehnică la domiciliu.

How to travel safely and responsibly in 2022 and beyond

Wondering how to travel safely during COVID-19? Many of us are longing to travel again, but only if we can do so safely and responsibly.

We’ve put a lot of thought into the safest ways to take a vacation right now. And we plan to continually update this post with safe travel ideas and tips, as travel restrictions change and Coronavirus travel advice evolves.

In this post, we cover: – Safety tips to help you travel again during COVID-19 – Safe trip ideas for 2022 travel in the United States – What to pack for pandemic travel – Places to visit and travel restriction resources by destination

How to travel safely and responsibly right now

Step one: Follow CDC travel guidelines

You should already know and practice hand washing, physical distancing, and wearing of face coverings in public.

Responsible travel right now also means being as self-contained as possible to avoid unnecessary interactions or depletion of supplies in the communities you enter. For this reason, consider bringing your own food and supplies when possible.

Be sure to research and obey local restrictions, especially when visiting a destination outside of your home community. Infection rates, hospital capacity, and testing vary widely. Some communities may not have adequate resources in case of an outbreak.

Please respect if a city, State, or county is discouraging non-essential travel.

The following travel activities are ranked on a scale of 1 to 10 by infectious disease experts according to risk of exposure to the virus (first number from Fall 2020 * , second italicized numbers for fully vaccinated people as of April 2021 * ):

Low Risk: – Going camping (2, 1 ) – Getting restaurant take-out (2, 1 ) – Pumping gas (2) – Grocery shopping (3, 1.4 ) – Going for a walk with others (3) Moderate risk: – Staying at a hotel for 2 nights (4) – Going to a beach (5) – Swimming (6) High risk: – Eating inside a restaurant (7, 3.6 ) – Playing contact sports (7) – Traveling by plane (7, 2.7 ) – Going to an amusement park (8) – Attending a large event (9) – Going to a bar (9)

Consequently, we’ll focus on local camping road trips and staycations as the best way to travel safely right now .

Safe trip ideas

After researching safe travel ideas during Covid, we came up with three trip recommendations. These trip ideas were chosen because they:

• Avoid exposure to crowds and public spaces in transit
• Allow you to cook your own meals or order take out, like you would at home
• Avoid being in vehicles with others outside your group
• Let you control who and what enters your living space
• Provide access to no-contact activities like hiking, scenic drives, and lounging

1. Take an RV Road Trip

Camping or taking a road trip in an RV allows you to social distance and be self-contained as you travel. With your own kitchen, you have control over what comes in and out of your space, just like at home. And with your own bathroom facilities, you can avoid using public restrooms. 

The only difference from staying home vs. a socially distanced RV road trip is that you’ll need to fuel up with gas. By wearing a face mask, watching what you touch at the gas station, and washing hands or using hand sanitizer, this risk can be minimized fairly easily.

Whether you’re driving to reach a destination without airport crowds, or choosing a single stop for a staycation near home, an RV road trip is a great way to get a change of scenery while still maintaining your home safety routines.

Outdoorsy is like Airbnb for RVs. It’s where RV owners rent out their RVs when they’re not using them.

If you’ve always wanted to try out a motorhome, or want to upgrade your National Parks road trip with a cute Airstream, consider renting through Outdoorsy. Their customer service and reviews have outranked the other top RV rental companies. You can search listings by vehicle type and location. Some owners will even deliver the motorhome to your door! *Take $50 off your Outdoorsy rental with coupon code: intentional

2. Escape with No-Contact Tent Camping

Camping is rated one of the lowest risk travel activities for Coronavirus transmission. Being outdoors with plenty of space not only limits exposure but it’s good for the soul.

With a little prep, you can bring food to cook your own meals. See our camping road trip packing checklist .

But what about using public restrooms when camping? If you don’t have an RV with self-contained bathroom facilities, the essential business of “eliminating waste” becomes your greatest exposure to indoor, pubic facilities where you may need to touch doors, faucets, etc. 

By adding a few new camping items, it’s possible to avoid public bathrooms on your camping trip.

See our socially distanced, no-contact camping packing list for the pandemic

3. Staycation in a Vacation Rental

With vacation rentals like Airbnb, you can book an entire guest house or apartment. This way, you can keep similar safety practices that you have at home. For example, you can cook at your vacation home, ordering take out or curbside grocery pick up for meals.

You can book your getaway within driving distance from home, or along the route of a socially distanced road trip. Staying near home is a great way to enjoy a change of scenery while avoiding crowds in airports.

Compared to a hotel stay, you’re like to have fewer interactions with staff or other travelers when renting a vacation home.

Safe Travels: 20 TIPS for Peace of Mind As You Travel Solo or with Others

For many of you, the thought of traveling, whether it is across the country OR overseas, gives you a feeling of trepidation. Travel CAN be overwhelming—enough to keep you grounded—especially if you are traveling solo.

To ease YOUR mind (whether you are traveling solo, with your family, or in a group), discover practical advice for safe travels with tried and tested information; I include tips, research, and lessons Chris and I have learned through trial and error. Your trip should be as smooth, problem-free, and uncomplicated as possible. You can do it. Let’s get started.

My goal is to inspire YOU to live out your travel dreams, instill confidence as you begin your adventures, ensure peace of mind as you travel, and encourage you to explore the world.

Safe Travels: 20 Tips for Peace of Mind as You Travel

For years, Chris has been traveling solo for work and making it look easy. And I suppose that is part of his success—the more he does it, the better he becomes. He has streamlined his travel so that he knows exactly how much time he needs to get to an airport gate and how to have a safe travel experience. Chris has encouraged me to travel solo as well to meet up with him in destinations such as Italy , France , and London . 

My advice? Embrace life. Don’t give up on or put off your travel dreams simply because travel is unknown or that you don’t want to go alone. Many solo travelers have safe travel adventures and LOVE seeing the world on their own schedule. Discover your inner adventurer and have peace of mind while traveling.

These tips are not a guarantee of safety. Bad things sometimes do happen. Be situationally aware and use common sense. Ensure safe travels with goals to have fun and memorable experiences.

1. Be Confident

One of the amazing things about my husband, Chris, is that being a cheerleader is his superpower . When I am feeling less than confident, he always says to me, “Own it.”

As you plan the logistics to have a safe travel adventure, be confident as you embrace your strengths and acknowledge your weaknesses. Confidently step out of your comfort zone. I once paraglided off of Mt. Pilatus in Switzerland and that was a huge "leap" for me!

2. Create Travel Habits for Safe Travels

Create and follow habits so you remember to gather all of your belongings, are aware of your surroundings, and make smart decisions.

When you veer from your travel habits, maybe due to exhaustion or a busy schedule, you begin to make mistakes. Like forgetting your iPad in the seat pocket of the airplane.

Pro Tip * As you sightsee throughout your vacation, create a travel habit of making sure your backpack is always in contact with your body (ie., on your back, on your chest, or between your feet when you are seated and your back needs a break).

3. Do Your Research for Stress-Free Travel

When you fly to a new destination, be prepared by doing research in advance. Know how much it should cost to take a taxi from the airport to your hotel. Determine the best place to rent a car, pick the safest plazas, and read the reviews on the most reputable tour companies.

Plan ahead to know which train or subway to take, where to get off, or how far it is to walk to get to your hotel.

Be sure to read reviews from a variety of different sources if you can for hotels, rentals, excursions, hikes and destinations. Some companies, cough "Airbnb!", do not always post negative comments on their site. We know because we gave a bad review once and it never showed up!

4. Follow Your Intuition and Practice Situational Awareness

Whether you are enjoying the benefits of solo travel or are exploring the world with family or friends, practice situational awareness for added peace of mind while traveling. What can you do to practice situational awareness?

• Keep your hand on your valuables in crowded areas.
• If you are traveling in a group, learn to keep an eye on each other.
• If you are on a subway or tram, keep your bags close to you. Turn your backpack around and wear it in front.
• Don’t keep anything valuable in an outer pocket of your backpack, purse, or carry-on.
• Wear your wallet in your front pocket.
• Wear a crossbody bag or something similar to hold cash, your phone and other essentials.
• Be discreet with your money and valuables.
• Don't keep wallets, phones, or cash handy for the convenience.
• Use the in-room safe in your hotel.
• Keep a copy of your passport and itinerary in a secure app online.
• "Mind the gap" and other traffic warnings, especially in countries where they drive on the other side of the road .
• Carry only enough money for the day.
• Disperse credit cards and money to more than one person if traveling with a group.
• Keep one credit card in a separate place (store in the hotel safe when you are out and about).
• Be aware of your surroundings.
• Don't be an obnoxious tourist.
• If it doesn’t feel right, use common sense and don’t do it or simply leave. This is wise advice whether you are on your own or with a group. 

5. Stick to Public Places

You may have more flexibility with this during the daylight hours, but even then you need to use common sense. When it is dark, especially when traveling solo, you should be extra cautious. If you aren’t comfortable being out alone in the evening, book a room with a balcony so you can still enjoy the nightlife.

6. Try to Blend In

Wearing your Mickey Mouse ears, sporting a Where's Waldo outfit, or walking around with a guidebook in hand pretty much shouts "Tourist!" Whether you are traveling on your own or with a group, try to be a little more subtle. Dress modestly as the locals do and be respectful of a country's dress standards.

7. If You Are Traveling SOLO Don’t Announce that You’re Alone

When asking for directions, suggest that you are planning to meet up with a friend or travel companion.

8. Leave Your Valuables at Home

Don’t flash expensive jewelry, purses, or clothing. Again, try to blend in. Don't make yourself a target.

9. Keep in Touch with Family and Friends and Let Them Know Your Location

This is a good rule of thumb for all travelers for increased peace of mind while traveling. Leave a copy of your itinerary with family or friends and check in regularly.

Pro Tip * Give your mom peace of mind as you travel! She wants to know that you have a safe travel experience planned.

10. Register with STEP

It is important to register with STEP ( Smart Traveler Enrollment Program ) with the State Department to receive important information about safety conditions. It will also help your family as well as the US Embassy if they need to contact you in an emergency. (Again, your mom needs the peace of mind as you travel!)

11. Plan your Arrivals and Departures During the Day

For safe travels throughout the world, plan your arrivals and departures during the day if possible.

12. Carry ID in More Than One Place

Keep a copy of your passport on your smartphone. Be sure to store it in secure app or password program. For added peace of mind as you travel, make sure you have secure electronic copies of all of your essential documents, ie., passport, driver's license, health insurance card.

Pro Tip * Travel with extra passport photos in case you ever have to replace yours.

13. Join Guided Tours

This is a fantastic way to see the world AND meet people. Tours can range from walking tours, cooking tours, wine tours, or adventures.

Search Viator for Tours

14. Meet People

A few more tips if you are enjoying the benefits of solo travel but still want to engage with others as you travel:

• Eat at restaurants that are crowded that encourages you to meet others.
• Go on tours.
• Be friendly.

15. Enjoy Your Solitude

If you are traveling solo and appreciate that solitude is one of the benefits of solo travel, "Own it!" You already know that you don't want to draw undue attention to yourself; bring a book or tablet to read at mealtimes.

16. Stay on Top of Finances

Money in Tahiti, French Polynesia

Let Your Credit Card Company Know Travel Dates

Be sure to let your bank or credit card company know the dates you will be traveling. We have had our cards frozen when charges from an unusual location began to show up. To make it easier, mobile banking apps often have a section where you can easily place a travel notice on your account.

Keep Your Receipts

You never know when you might need to reference a receipt from a company that might have overcharged you. This happens somewhat regularly. For example, on a recent car rental in Germany we were charged an extra $25 for a currency conversion “fee” because Hertz elected to charge us in dollars, not euros. The receipt said we'd been given an option, which wasn’t true. Chris had to call and haggle to get that silly fee refunded. Customs may also ask you for receipts.

17. Use a VPN

You may wish to use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to shield your connections from prying eyes.

Now, if you are anything like me, and someone nonchalantly says, "Use a VPN..." you're probably asking,  "A VP what?"  

To put it simply, we all use public WiFi networks when we are out and about. And while they are a huge convenience for us, they are also convenient for hackers who are looking to compromise your personal data. A VPN creates a secure, encrypted connection that make your internet connection look as though you’re at home. 

VPN services come for free as part of packages on some password managers. Some home internet routers also have VPN servers, which take a little technical setup but won’t require any monthly subscription to use when you’re traveling. You are basically creating a connection to home and then using your streaming services (ie., Hulu, Netflix) while abroad.

18. Avoid Theft

We have been blessed thus far to avoid theft via pickpockets. Well, that is, except for a friend who traveled to France with us in the summer of 2017. We were traveling on the Metro in Paris and she had her phone in her purse in an outer pocket. As we exited the Metro, our friend sadly noted that her phone had been stolen.

Before leaving on that trip, I purchased Flipbelts for my girls and myself to wear. They weren't always convenient and probably looked weird for us to be pulling our phones in and out. But, knock on wood, our electronic devices and valuables have been safe thus far. The waist belts have zippered slots and are worn as a band around your waist under your clothing.

I also purchased a few Columbia travel shirts that have zippered pockets in the side seams. While nothing is 100% safe , I wear them often and keep my phone and credit cards in them where I can easily hold my hand over a pocket as needed.

One of my favorite purchases is my Travelon Crossbody bag. The Travelon Crossbody Bag is my best piece of travel gear for travel in Europe, travel close to home, and for cruise travel . I even convinced my husband that he would love one too!

19. Invest in Peace of Mind as You Travel with Travel Insurance

Travel insurance is affordable and offers peace of mind and stress-free travel. World Nomads and Safety Wing are two companies that I am familiar with (also check your credit card coverage). Their policies may cover the following:

• Trip cancellation
• Delayed, damaged, or stolen gear and baggage
• Needing to see a doctor when you are sick
• Emergency evacuation via helicopter out of a danger zone
• Needing to be sent home (as well as from death overseas)
• Assaults or terrorist attacks

Travel insurance is easy to obtain (and is renewable online if you extend your stay). It can save you thousands if something happens to go wrong.

20. Leave Your Home in Good Order

While you are away, plan to have a safe travel adventure by leaving everything in order at home. Make arrangements for some essentials to be taken care of before you leave your house . For example:

• Put a hold on your mail and newspaper.
• Have a trusted neighbor, friend, or family member check your front door for packages.
• Make arrangements for someone to mow your lawn and check on your yard (ensure that sprinklers are working properly). Mow right before you leave.
• Arrange for someone to water your houseplants. Also, water plants right before you leave.

The goal is to put your mind at ease while giving your home and yard a lived-in look so you can enjoy your time away.

11 Better Ways To Say “Safe Travels”

“Safe travels” is a polite way to wish somebody well on their upcoming journey. However, there are better ways to be polite and reassuring to your friends when they’re ready to go somewhere (often by plane). This article will share the best alternatives for such a case with you.

What Can I Say Instead Of “Safe Travels”?

There are plenty of ways to use “safe travels” in more exciting manners. You should check out one of the following:

• Have a good flight
• Happy landings
• See you on the other side
• Let me know when you arrive safely
• Stay safe out there
• Enjoy your trip
• Have a relaxing time away
• Happy travels

The preferred version is “be safe” because it keeps it simple. It’s a common phrase we use when we want to wish someone well, and we don’t want them to come across any complications or dangers that might occur if they’re not “careful” enough.

“Be safe” is great to show we care about someone. It lets them know that we worry about them, and we want them to stay “safe” no matter what happens. It works regardless of the method of transport for the journey as well, which makes it a good general phrase.

It’s common for family members to use the phrase “ be safe ” when seeing each other off. This shows that there is a lot of love behind the phrase and that it works well to show how much you care about someone’s wellbeing.

Here are a few ways we might be able to use this phrase:

• Be safe out there. I know you like to find trouble, but for once, I’d love it if you looked after yourself!
• Be safe on your way out! I would love to hear from you and see the pictures of all the things you get up to.
• Don’t forget to message me when you get there! Be safe, and I love you!

“Safe trip” is a simple phrase we can use to make sure someone knows we care. Using words like “safe” reminds people that we worry about them. Even if we are not physically there with them, we hope they are “safe” and do not get into trouble.

This phrase works well regardless of the trip that someone is taking. It could be a long-distance or a short-distance trip. Likewise, it could be by car, plane, boat, or something else entirely!

This phrase works in the following situations:

• Safe trip, Yuri! I’ll miss you, but I know you’ll be thinking about me while you’re away.
• Safe trip back to your hometown, then. Let me know when you get there safely.
• Safe trip, old friend. I’ll see you again whenever you’re next in town!

Have A Good Flight

“Have a good flight” is appropriate to use when someone is going to get on a plane . We use “flight” here to be specific, which helps us to show that we know what someone is getting up to and what they’re likely going to expect from their journey.

We can use this phrase in the following ways:

• Have a good flight! I’m sure you can get all the food and drink you want on there!
• Have a good flight, and don’t forget to let me know when you land safely!
• Have a good flight! There’s nothing to worry about, and you know it’ll all be okay!

Happy Landings

“Happy landings” specifically highlights the “landing” portion of a journey. It works well when someone is going on a plane, and we want them to be “happy” throughout the course of their journey.

Here are a few useful examples of how this one works:

• Happy landings, fella! Don’t forget that they really like their tips out there when you’re dining out!
• Happy landings, then! I’ll miss you every second, so I want you to send me all the photos you can!
• Happy landings! Don’t forget to explore some of the local scenery!

See You On The Other Side

“See you on the other side” is an informal idiom that works well in many cases. We can do it when we know that someone will be returning to see us again soon. “The other side” indicates the place where we will be staying while they go on a journey.

Check out some of these examples to see how it looks:

• See you on the other side, then! Have a great holiday!
• Have a great time away, Fred! See you on the other side!
• I’ll be here waiting for you as always! See you on the other side!

Let Me Know When You Arrive Safely

“Let me know when you arrive safely” is a calm way to let someone know that you are worried. When they arrive at their destination, we can ask them to “message” us to ease our minds and show us that they are thinking about us even after their journey.

We could also use a phrase like “text me when” instead of “let me know when.” If we want to be more specific about the manner of messaging, this phrase works just as well.

This phrase works well in the following ways:

• Let me know when you arrive safely, please! You know how much I worry about you while I’m not around!
• Text me when you arrive safely, please! I want to know just how much fun you’re getting up to.
• Let me know when you arrive safely! I’ll miss you every second that you’re away.

Stay Safe Out There

“Stay safe out there” is a good way to show that you care about someone. “Stay safe” helps to let them know that you’ll be looking out for them and that you want them to explore, but in a reasonable way that won’t cause them harm.

We typically use this phrase when someone is going on a long-distance journey. “Out there” is a good indicator of that.

Check out some of these examples to see how it works:

• Stay safe out there, then! I know you’ll make all the best choices while you’re away.
• Stay safe out there! I’ll miss you, but I know you’ll be having an absolutely adoring time!
• Stay safe out there. You never know what hijinx you might get into, so make sure you text me!

Enjoy Your Trip

“Enjoy your trip” is a simple way to show someone that you care. It helps to let them know that we want them to “enjoy” themselves. While trips can sometimes be boring (especially long-distance ones), we want people to feel like they can still have fun.

This simple phrase works as follows :

• Enjoy your trip, Michael! Let me know when you arrive so we can discuss the adventure more!
• Enjoy your trip! Don’t forget to immerse yourself in the local culture when you get there!
• Enjoy your trip! I expect you to be fluent in German by the time you get back, okay?

Have A Relaxing Time Away

“Have a relaxing time away” works well in many cases. It’s most effective when we know that someone is inclined to worry (whether about the journey or the place they’re going). If we want to calm them down, this phrase works well.

These examples will help you make more sense of it:

• Have a relaxing time away! Remember, you don’t need to worry about a thing when you get on that plane!
• Have a relaxing time away! If anyone deserves it, it is most certainly you!
• Have a relaxing time away! I’m going to miss you, but I know you’ll be back in no time!

Happy Travels

“Happy travels” works really well when we want people to feel “happy” on their journey. “Travels” can refer to any method of transport, but the idea is that they’ll be spending a long time getting from point A to point B, and we want them to feel “happy.”

Perhaps one of these examples will help you make more sense of it:

• Happy travels, mate! I know you’ll love it over there in Australia, but you must tell me all about it.
• Happy travels, Sue! I’ll miss you, so don’t forget to write to me every day about what you do.
• Happy travels, Dan! Thank you for coming to see me again, and I’ll see you again soon, yeah?

“Bon voyage” is a great way to wish someone well before they go on an adventure. It’s French (and Italian), and it means “good journey.” It’s a commonly-used exclamation in English when we want to wish somebody well for something they’re going to do.

It’s also comforting because it shows that we do not wish any problems to come their way when they’re on their journey.

• Bon voyage, my little friend! I’ll see you again when you return!
• Bon voyage, then! I will miss you, but I hope you get a chance to text me a bunch when you get there!
• Bon voyage! I love you so much, and I’ll definitely miss you while you’re away.
