About HiCaleb
There is more news than ever, and most of it is noise. When a volcano erupts or an airport goes on strike, it's hard to tell what actually happened and what it means for your trip.
HiCaleb keeps it simple. We check reputable news outlets and government warnings like Smartraveller, keep only what's confirmed, and explain it in plain English, including what your travel insurance is likely to cover and what to do next.
New updates are added every few hours. You don't need to sign up for anything. Just check the news page before you travel.
Why travel insurance matters
A cancelled flight, a lost bag or a hospital visit overseas can cost thousands. Good travel insurance can cover a lot of it, but only if you bought it in time and the event isn't excluded. That's why every update on HiCaleb tells you the date insurers start treating an event as “known”.
