Questions to consider before choosing cover

Travel insurance can be an important part of preparation, but policies differ. The right cover depends on your journey, circumstances and the activities you plan to undertake.

Start with your trip

Consider destination, duration, age and circumstances of travellers, prepaid costs, valuables, planned activities, transport arrangements and any relevant health conditions.

Read the policy information

Review benefits, limits, exclusions, excesses, eligibility rules, medical assessment requirements and the process for seeking help or making a claim. Do not rely on a short summary alone.

Questions worth asking

  • · Are all destinations and the full travel period covered?
  • · Are planned activities, cruises or rental vehicles addressed?
  • · How are existing medical conditions treated?
  • · What evidence and notifications are required if something goes wrong?
  • · Who provides assistance while you are travelling?
