• iTrek's travel insurance benefits explained

  • Overseas medical emergency assistance and expenses. From medical transfer and evacuation, consultation with medical professionals and necessary medical and dental costs, iTrek can help you pay the bills so you're not stuck with huge out-of-pocket costs.
  • Personal liability. Getting into trouble overseas can end up with you owing legal expenses or compensation to somebody else. Personal liability may help cover you if this situation arises.
  • Luggage and personal effects. If your stuff goes missing, gets damaged or is stolen while you're travelling, iTrek can pay to replace or repair it, up to a stated limit. Individual items may be subject to depreciation when calculating their value.
  • Luggage/personal effects delay expenses. If your airline or tour bus or similar delays your baggage by more than 12 hours, iTrek may sponsor the purchase of important personal items you may need in the meantime.
    Treatment by chiropractor and physiotherapist. Often excluded from necessary medical cover, iTrek can cover a certain amount of required treatment from chiropractors and physiotherapists.
  • Rental vehicle insurance excess. When you get into a scrape or incident with a rented vehicle, you're liable to pay an excess to the rental company. This feature can help cover that cost.
  • Alternative transport expenses. If you have to make emergency travel plans to a wedding, funeral or ticketed event because your planned transport was cancelled or delayed, iTrek may assist you with the costs.

What options can I add-on to my iTrek travel insurance?

In addition to the major benefits outlined above, you can obtain extra cover options at the price of an increased premium. These are generally available for non-Medical Only plans and include:

• High value items. If you have the Comprehensive policy, you can add $5,000 of cover for high value items that are less than 12 months old.
  Winter sports pack. Winter sports are not covered without this option. It also adds in winter sports-specific features like emergency rescue, piste closure, avalanches and bad weather, and winter sports hire equipment.
• Bicycle pack. This adds bicycles onto the list of items that will be covered in the event of theft or damage. The bicycle has to be less than three years old.
• Adventure pack. Most risky sports and activities are not included in your travel insurance plan. With the adventure pack, you can take part in a wide range of approved activities and still be covered by iTrek.
• Trekking pack. If you're planning to go trekking while you're on your trip, you'll need this add-on to cover treks you take with a licensed guide or operator.

What isn't covered by my policy?

No matter what insurance provider you go with, there are situations where they will refuse to pay a claim. For iTrek, they will not cover you if:

• You're acting irresponsibly at the time of the incident.
• You've engaged in manual labour related to a business or trade while on your trip.
• You are doing anything illegal, criminal or prohibited.
• You're driving or are a passenger in a vehicle or moped driven by someone who does not hold the appropriate licence for the country you're in.
• You decide to travel somewhere that has a current travel warning either from any government or the mass media.
• You're travelling with a pre-existing medical condition that hadn't already been approved by iTrek before you purchased your travel policy.
• You are under the influence of unprescribed drugs or alcohol at the time of the incident.
• Your claim relates to any risky sport or activity, unless you've purchased the appropriate add-on for your policy.
