The UAE travel insurance market is poised for growth, driven by the expansion of the tourist industry and increased awareness of the benefits of travel insurance. The demand for travel insurance is expected to be primarily fueled by the rise in domestic and international travel. According to the World Tourism Organization, UAE citizens spent approximately USD 21.78 billion (or 80 billion dirhams) on travel and tourism in 2021, making the UAE the top spender in the region and sixth globally. Additionally, the average per capita tourism expenditure in the UAE was around USD 2,500. With increasing tourism spending, the travel insurance industry is projected to experience significant growth in the coming years.

Furthermore, travel insurance company Policybazaar reported a substantial 150% increase in sales of travel insurance policies in the UAE market during the April-June quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of the year.

The market growth is also driven by the escalating issue of flight cancellations and delays, which have become more prevalent in recent months. One of the common problems faced by travelers from the UAE is delayed or lost check-in baggage. In April 2022 alone, US airlines mishandled around 220,000 bags, including cases of loss, damage, delay, or theft. Staff shortages, particularly in major European airports such as Amsterdam and London, where many travelers have connecting flights, contribute to the problem. While airlines may provide limited reimbursement, it is often insufficient. Fortunately, travel insurance providers offer coverage for both baggage delay and loss, addressing the market need for comprehensive protection.

Overall, the projected period presents promising prospects for the travel insurance industry in the UAE, driven by the growth of the tourist industry, increasing travel demand, and the need for protection against flight disruptions and baggage-related issues.

Policy modifications during the Covid-19 pandemic have stimulated market growth. Several insurance companies in the UAE have introduced new travel insurance products that cover the risks associated with Covid-19. This has become a crucial requirement imposed by many countries for travelers and tourists. For instance, Dubai Islamic Insurance and Reinsurance Company, as reported by Emirates Today, offers customers the option to purchase additional coverage for Covid-19 based on the applicable terms and conditions. Similarly, AXA Gulf Company stated that it will cover all emergency medical costs and quarantine-related expenses for a maximum of 15 days, up to USD100 per day, in the event of a confirmed diagnosis of an infectious disease in a country other than the traveler's origin. Consequently, the long-term impact of the Covid-19 pandemic is expected to benefit the industry by raising awareness about the importance of travel insurance and the need for digitalization to streamline insurance procedures.

Furthermore, market developments such as partnership agreements are anticipated to drive market expansion and increase the demand for insurance. The recent merger between Islamic Arab Insurance Company "Salama" and Emirates Takaful Insurance Company, Takful Al Emara, is a significant example. This merger is expected to enhance the company's capabilities and make the UAE insurance industry more appealing and attractive for local, regional, and foreign investments. By gaining access to a larger customer base and expanding their market share, companies can further stimulate the demand for travel insurance in the UAE market.
