Why consider travel insurance?

You could save serious money

Avoid paying for bells and whistles you don’t need. If you’re not planning to go skydiving, you probably don’t need extreme sports cover. By shopping around, you can find a policy that gives you exactly what you need - and nothing you don’t. Save those dollars for sampling local cuisine and new experiences.

You’ll get cover that actually suits your trip

Every traveller is different. Heading to a country with a reciprocal healthcare agreement? Great - you may not need the most comprehensive medical cover. Still, don’t skip on key inclusions, especially if you take medication or your kids have specific health needs, like asthma.

You’ll spot gaps before they cause problems

All policies have exclusions. Comparing cover helps you avoid surprises when it matters most. No one wants to discover your lost luggage isn’t covered after it’s halfway to Lisbon - and you’re not.

Find the right travel insurance for your trip

Travel insurance policies usually include some or all of the following.
Terms and conditions may vary between providers, so check the policy wording

Medical expenses and emergencies

This includes hospital stays, doctor visits, and emergency evacuation. Many policies also cover dental emergencies and repatriation to your home country.

Trip cancellations or interruptions

Covers non-refundable expenses if you can't travel due to reasons like illness, injury, or natural disasters. Most policies now include optional COVID-related cover, which may cost extra.

Baggage and personal belongings

Protection against loss, theft, or damage to your luggage and personal items. Some policies even include cover for essential items if your luggage is delayed.

Rental vehicle excess

If you hire a car and are involved in an accident or damage occurs, travel insurance can cover the excess fee often required by rental companies.

Accidental death or dismemberment

Your travel insurer can provide financial support in the event of a serious accident during your trip.

Travel delays

Most policies also cover additional costs for meals, accommodation, or alternative transport if your travel is delayed due to covered reasons.

Find the right travel insurance for your trip

Travel insurance policies usually include some or all of the following:

Single-trip policies

Ideal for one-time travellers, this type of travel insurance covers a single journey for a set duration.

Annual multi-trip policies

Best for frequent travellers, covering multiple trips within a year. If you travel often over a twelve month period.

Basic cover

Usual Inclusions
Covers essential medical expenses only.

Who is it for?
Budget travellers, countries with reciprocal healthcare agreements.

Standard cover

Usual Inclusions
Includes medical expenses, tour cancellation, lost luggage, and some extras.

Who is it for?
Most standard holidaymakers travelling on guided tours.

Compehensive cover

Usual Inclusions
Medical costs, cancellation fees, lost or stolen luggage, adventure sports, additional benefits.

Who is it for?
Those going on longer trips with complex itineraries moving through many countries - and travellers with complex medical needs.

How much does travel insurance cost?

This varies based on:
Your destination: Travelling somewhere remote or without reciprocal healthcare? Expect a higher premium. High risk destinations (e.g. travelling to a conflict zone) comes with higher premiums too.
Your travel duration: Longer trips = more exposure to risk.
Your age: Premiums often increase as you get older.
Any pre-existing conditions your may have: Some insurers will cover these for an additional fee.
Your excess: Higher excess = lower premium (but more out-of-pocket costs for you if you do need to claim).
Level of cover: Comprehensive cover costs more, but offers peace of mind and lower costs if you do need to claim.

For example, a 40-year-old travelling solo to the UK for two weeks might pay around $45 for a basic policy, or over $150+ for comprehensive cover.

From initial phone call in wanting to compare Health Insurance the team at Compare understood our concerns and requirements and worked with us respectfully and patiently as we responded to all their questions and until they were positive we were working towards the same goal. The staff from initial calls to our final call with Fleur were handled professionally, respectfully and no point was it nor felt like they were trying to get a sale. The comparison Compare found for us has ended up saving us more than $30 per month with a great increase in quite a few of the extras we use all year round.

My change in providers for electricity and gas was so easy. I was unable to contact my current provider, sooo frustrating. With the comparisons shown to me I was able to make a fully informed decision, the best part being that I didn’t have to wait, be disconnected or answer many questions. Would totally recommend using Compare Club. Thank you

We have used the Compare Club twice now, health insurance and electricity/gas. Both have been positive experiences with real savings as a result of reviewing and switching to different providers. In our experience the staff have been excellent to deal with, not pushy, just genuine comparisons, you get to make the decision without any pressure at all. While we had done and do our own reviews, these guys are tuned in to all the detail far more than ourselves in doing our own comparisons. So far using this service has worked well for us, good outcomes.

Kate's top travel insurance tips

If your trip includes multiple destinations, you’ll want a policy that offers cover for every location. Also be mindful of other factors such as travel duration, age, any pre-existing conditions, your excess and level of cover. For example, a 40-year-old travelling solo to the UK for two weeks might pay around $45 for a basic policy, or over $150+ for comprehensive cover.
With pre-existing conditions: Long COVID isn’t always covered yet. If this matters to you, check policies carefully.
Real reviews matter: Ask friends or read independent reviews before picking a provider. Avoid biased or uncontactable websites.

FAQs about travel insurance

Here are some of the most frequently asked questions we receive about travel insurance:

What is an ‘excess’?

It’s what you pay out of pocket when you make a claim. For small claims (like lost earphones), it might not be worth claiming.

Is COVID-19 covered by travel insurance?

Many insurers now include COVID cover, but check your fine print. Some charge extra, and inclusions vary wildly. This add-on premium can also be affected by your destination.

Can I extend my travel insurance cover?

Usually yes, but you’ll need to apply before your current policy expires, and additional fees may apply.

Is stolen cash covered?

Some policies include this, others don’t. Read your Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) carefully - or ask before you buy.

What’s the difference between travel and flight insurance?

Flight insurance only covers delays and cancellations. Travel insurance covers your trip, belongings, and health.

When should you buy travel insurance?

As soon as you’ve booked your trip. That way, you’re covered for cancellations or interruptions well before you pack your sunscreen. Things happen even before you leave home, such as family emergencies or health issues.

Can’t I get travel insurance through my credit card?

You usually can. Especially if you book your trip this way, but beware because these policies are often limited. You may get broader, better value by comparing standalone policies.
