What is the best travel insurance ? |
|
|
- Travel insurance is essential for any overseas trip, especially if you’re travelling to the US (even on a stopover)
- Buy travel insurance as soon as you buy your tickets
- Be upfront with your insurer ie. advise them of any pre-existing medical condition and activities planned esp if hazardous
- Make sure you read the fine print, some policies have the wording of their policies online. Policy cover is based on limits associated with medical cover, loss of luggage, cancellations, personal liability, evacuation, rental vehicle excess and adventure activities.
- Don’t assume that your credit card travel insurance policy automatically covers you. It’s offered ‘free’ to holders of Gold Credit cards. Most banks limit cover to 35 days (except ASB, ANZ and National Gold provide for 90 days)
