Insurance for expedition members

All participants of expeditions of the Alfred Wegener Instituts are automatically protected by an accident insurance and by a travel health insurance.

Note

Generally there no need for further action except for following persons:

  • Passengers that are older then 67 years or will be 67 years old during the expedition
  • Passengers that will
abroad longer
  • travel more than 99 days including journey to and from the destination
  • Passengers that stay abroad right before or after the expedition should have additional insurances for this private stay.

    • These expeditions members have to register with AWI ship coordination before expedition start.


    The detailled conditions of insurance and extension options can be found in the AWI intranet. Please get familiar with this so that you know what you can expect from the insurances just in case.

    External expedition members may contact the AWI staff that may give you some the relevant information. You may also contact Beate KuhlmanMartina Kniemeyer-Treu Schulze from the  AWI - logistics department.

    The ship's doctor has to be informed immediately in case of accident or disease onboard. The insurance company will then be notified. If something happens during journey to or from the destination promptly contact the AWI logistics.
