Travel Cover: How to Compare Travel Insurance
How to compare travel insurance policies
Choosing the right travel insurance is important, but comparing policies online can sometimes be confusing. To get through the lengthy policies, difficult wordings and long lists of what is and isn’t covered, we have a few tips to help make the process easier. Be sure to check the items below as you compare travel insurance plans.
Policy Excess
The word ‘excess’ is commonly thrown around when discussing travel insurance. Excess is the first amount of a claim that is not covered. The levels of excess can vary by insurer and by their policies offered, so make sure you compare the different levels.
To understand how excess works, imagine you lost your new iPad while travelling. Your travel insurance policy has a level of excess on personal electronics of $250, but the iPad is worth $450. Therefore, with this plan, you would only receive partial compensation for your lost iPad—the iPad’s current value of $450 less the excess of $250.
At Cover-More, we have a variety of international travel insurance plans that allow you to choose an excess level that works for your budget. Remember, the higher the excess chosen, the less you pay for your policy premium. Get a quote for our Cover-More Travel Insurance with your chosen level of excess now.
Exclusions
What is not covered in your travel insurance policy is just as important as what is covered by your plan, so be sure to compare exclusions.
Our Cover-More Travel Insurance policies provide cover for many incidents and unexpected events that other insurers may not cover. So, it is important to compare policies to understand the extent of what is covered. Start your Cover-More Travel Insurance quote now.
Emergency Assistance
Emergency medical assistance is an essential service for any holiday.
At Cover-More, we put our policyholders' health and safety first. We are committed to providing you with superior, round-the-clock service through World Travel Protection, our own medical and travel assistance division with over 30 years of experience.
All of our policyholders receive round-the-clock emergency medical assistance, no matter what plan you choose. Get a quote today.
Travel Cancellation Policies
Unfortunately, sometimes a holiday must be cancelled for unforeseen reasons such as personal or family illness, in which case lost deposits, costs of prepaid flights and cancellation fees only add to the feeling of misfortune.
When comparing travel insurance plans, be sure to check the policy’s cancellation cover so you are not left with exorbitant expenses in case you must cancel your trip. Get a quote for our Cover-More travel insurance with cancellation coverage today.
Travel Insurance Company Ratings
Be sure to research and compare travel insurer ratings. A company’s ratings are often indicative of their financial strength, meaning their ability to pay insurance claims quickly and efficiently. Our financial strength is thanks to Zurich Australian Insurance Limited trading as Zurich New Zealand (Zurich New Zealand), incorporated in Australia. Part of the Zurich Insurance Group, Zurich New Zealand holds a financial strength rating of AA- (strong) by Standard and Poor’s (Australia) Pty Ltd. (This is correct at the time of writing: April 2022.)
