While you never hope to need it, travel insurance can give you peace of mind when travelling both internationally and domestically. Your policy could end up saving you tens of thousands of dollars if the worst were to happen, which helps make your travel insurance worth it.
Cover-More customers Katie-Anne and Jacob racked up medical bills of $900,000 when they had a car accident in California. Luckily, their policy covered these expenses so they could focus on what mattered – recovering.
Could you afford to keep travelling without travel insurance if this happened to you?
Unforeseen illnesses, natural disasters and accidents can derail a well-planned holiday at any moment. It’s important to have a travel insurance policy that can protect you from the financial burden if something unfortunate happens.
According to DFAT, the short answer is yes. It is easy for things not to go to plan especially when travelling. Unforeseen expenses can quickly add up while you are overseas, and nothing will dampen a holiday faster than out-of-pocket bills.
Travel insurance can help protect your financial future against unexpected expenses that arise. Remember the Australian Government will not assist in paying for your medical bills overseas. If you do not have travel insurance, you and your family will have to carry the cost.
When you purchase a policy with Cover-More, you have access to our 24/7 Emergency Assistance team in case something goes wrong on your holiday.
