Trip type information

If you're taking a single trip this year, which does not include any travel by cruise, the one-trip cover is for you. But if you are travelling more than once you may be better off with an Annual multi-trip policy.

Please note we are currently not offering Annual Multi-Trip Policies

For Annual multi-trip policies the maximum trip duration covered is restricted by the policy option selected and will be either 30, 45 or 60 days, after which you must return to Australia before commencing a new trip.

If your trip includes any travel by cruise ship, then select the cruise option to be covered for the land, air AND CRUISE part of your journey. However, if you only want to be covered for the land and air part, then choose One Trip. By cruise we refer to any travel on sea, ocean or river by any commercially operated ship, boat or other sea vessel for longer than two hours.

If you are taking a gap year, an adventure holiday or a round the world trip you may find our Backpacker product is more tailored for your needs.

Our policies cover many pre-existing conditions, some at no extra surcharge. To see if we can cover yours, please complete our medical assessment online at 4th step of quote journey or over the phone.

You will be able to save your quote for when you’re ready to purchase as all quotes are valid for 30 days.

Most Common Questions

1. What is the maximum age you can insure up to?

We cover up to 79 or 100 years of age, subject to policy type and cover level selected. 

3. Do you cover pre-existing medical conditions?

We consider all pre-existing medical conditions for possible cover, subject to agreement, in all of our travel insurance products, except for our Domestic Travel Insurance. To determine whether your condition will be covered, you will need to complete the Medical Assessment during the purchase process online or over the phone.

5. If cover is refused for my pre-existing medical condition, am I still covered for my trip?

If, subject to our medical questionnaire, we are unable to cover your pre-existing medical conditions, we will only exclude any claims directly/indirectly relating to those conditions. Please keep in mind that you are still insured medically for a new condition that may unexpectedly arise overseas as well as accidental injuries and illnesses.

2. Is there a Senior’s travel insurance policy I need to purchase?

No. Simply select the trip type that best describes your journey.

4. I have an elderly parent, am I covered if I have to cancel my trip due to something happening to my parents?

With our Silver and Gold policies, we do offer cover for cancelling your trip prior to departure due to the unforeseeable death, illness or injury of one of your parents. Your parents must live in Australia and be in Australia at the time, and this cover does not include any cover for pre-existing medical condition of non-travelling relatives. Please refer to the policy wording for any benefit limits.

6. Do you cover flight delays after departure?

Under the InsureandGo Silver and Gold levels of cover, we will reimburse the cost of your necessary additional meals and accommodation expenses, if during a trip, any individual leg of your trip, is delayed for more than 12 hours, as long as you eventually go on the holiday.

The amount you can claim varies depending on the level of cover that you have purchased with us. Please refer to the policy wording documents for more information.

**Children (including fostered, or adopted children) travelling with either their parents or grandparents will be provided with travel insurance cover for no additional cost (any pre-existing medical conditions may incur an additional charge).
