Like any insurance, it's just about weighing your risks and making the decision.
I personally don't buy travel insurance...but I go into it knowing that there is a small chance something could happen and I could lose all that money. It's just a risk you have to decide if you want to take!

Good luck!

Personally I get an annual policy each year as I travel alot, but whatever you do NEVER buy it from the person you get your tickets from! Its always extortionate!

I usually get mine from a company called 'flexicover', I've had to claim off it before and their really good, payout fast and are really cheap! I've got single trip cover from them before for less than £5! (about $8)

Just FYI, Flexicover is for UK/EU residents only:
"Our policies are available to you if you are permanently resident in the United Kingdom or European Union and have been for the past six months prior to the date of issue, and registered with a medical practitioner in the United Kingdom or European Union. Trips must commence and end in your country of residence."
