Travel Extras

Yes, we think so. Even if you're healthy and careful, travel insurance protects you from things outside your control – flight cancellations, medical emergencies overseas, lost luggage, or having to cut your trip short due to unforeseen circumstances at home. Medical costs abroad can be astronomical, and without insurance, you're personally liable.

Most comprehensive policies cover medical expenses and emergency evacuation, trip cancellations or interruptions, lost or delayed baggage, flight delays, and personal liability. Some policies also cover adventure activities, rental car excess, and pre-existing medical conditions (with disclosure). We'll walk you through what's included in different policies so you get the right level of cover for your trip.

Absolutely. We'll ask about your trip, any activities you're planning (like skiing or diving), pre-existing medical conditions, and what level of cover you're comfortable with. Then we'll recommend policies that suit your needs and budget. We work with reputable Australian insurers and can organise everything for you as part of your booking.

As soon as you book your trip. Many benefits – like coverage for cancellations due to unforeseen circumstances – only apply if you purchase insurance within a certain timeframe of making your initial deposit. We'll sort this out for you when we confirm your booking so you're covered from day one.

You are highly advised to disclose any pre-existing conditions when applying for travel insurance, or your claim could be denied. Many insurers will cover pre-existing conditions, sometimes with an additional premium or specific exclusions. We'll help you find a policy that covers your situation properly – honesty upfront means no nasty surprises if you need to claim.
