Rio de Janeiro Reports

[Vagabundo1]

Its a apt hotel.

You see, the problem is the public healthcare in Rio. Not only covid, anything minor can happen. Well, moving on to more important stuff.

Transamerica barra is a hotel or flats?

I am a European Portuguese, do you think it's easier to hook with girls? And not get charged with the gringo tax.

I'm planning my first mongering when borders start opening up and plan to report back and upload pictures etc.

For a first trip, does Colombia vs Brazil have any major advantages over the other? Through some research, prices look about the same. One thing I really like about Brazil are the "termas", I don't think Colombia has an equivalent where you can go to a sauna and relax like a FKK club in Germany and monger at the same time. Thanks for any info.

Since I slid into Brazil in mid March, I have not been hassled about insurance.

I do have it through Uncle Sam.

I may have had Covid several times, but its a cough and it passes. Memento mori.

I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees; or to paraphrase, I'd rather get laid 200 more times in Brazil than sit in involuntary incarceration in the states.

Are you sure about that? I think it is more typical that USA Insurance private or government only covers your health services in the USA.

I had an Allianz travel policy through Delta and it did not cover COVID-19, hence I looked into this option. There could be a rider or endorsement to the Allianz policy. There is a difference between travel insurance which cover trip interruption and cancelation and some medical and the travel medical insurance. Devil is in the detail so do your research and read reviews I am just sharing my experience and not suggesting one over another.

Not sure how good they are paying claims though. Not as big and reputable insurance player as Allianz, Zurich, AIG or AXA. Hope to not have this issue. Good luck.

And that includes COVID-19 coverage as well?

When I bought it said it covers it if you get covid while on your trip, meaning you cannot already have it but how they can they prove that.

Girl I know recently had pcr and antibody done, took 4 days or pcr and 3 for antibody. She got covid and had all the symptoms. Being in her 20's and works out everyday but still had trouble breathing. She is recovering still after 2 weeks.

On United, Allianz insurance can be purchased with the ticket during check in on the web or app. Price depends on the cost of the ticket but is roughly 10%.

Allianz won't cover it now through any channel. 10% is a rule of the thumb price for all-in package including cancellation and interruption.

You want to get the plan with COVID-19 coverage. Need to read fine print for exclusions when you purchase other insurance plans from carriers such as Allianz.

I paid $60 for 10 days.

Thank you for a very useful post.

Thanks for the info.

[Safado69]

Thinking of coming down to Brazil now that it is open but will need insurance. Where did you get your insurance? How much did it cost for how much coverage and length of coverage? Thanks.

I arrived this past Tuesday via delta Atlanta to So Paulo and a connection to SDU on latam. BTW they airline verifies your travel medical insurance at the gate before you can board and also Brazilian immigration checks. Snip.
