Suncorp travel insurance policies ensure that you have a comfortable trip while they take care of everything. People who think they are healthy and do not need travel insurance should think again. Travel insurance policies not only provide you with medical protection but also cover you in case you lose your personal belongings or your flights get cancelled. Basically they cover you for the unexpected things that may happen while you travel. If you are travelling with your family or you are travelling alone, be assured that someone will be right there for you in case you need help. If you are an occasional traveller, Suncorp advise you to take their Holiday Travel Insurance policy which covers you for a single trip. On the other hand, if you travel frequently you are advised to go for their Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance policy which provides an annual cover. Their online service is quick and easy so your quote is just a click away. Both the policies give you the option of a single policy or a family policy. The single policy covers only the person named as the insured on the schedule, and one child or grandchild who accompanies them on the journey. A family policy covers the persons named as the insured on the schedule, and their husband, wife or de-facto partner, and their children or grandchildren who accompany them on the journey. With Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance you not only get the features provided in the Holiday Travel policy like cover for overseas medical and dental expenses, unlimited cancellation charges and cover for loss or damage to your personal baggage, but also a host of additional features aimed at making your trip comfortable. You can easily use their online services for making claims, payments and retrieving saved quotes, and their Accident Assist app aims to make claims all the more easy in case of emergencies.

Suncorp Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance cover provides additional features apart from those of Suncorp Holiday Travel Insurance cover. These key features include:
Whether you are in Australia or overseas, you can make a claim by a call, an email or fax. You will need to provide some information as well as documents at your own expense, such as original medical and dental certificates, specialist doctors’ reports, police reports, original proof of ownership such as receipts, invoices, packaging, travel itineraries, airline, train, bus or other transport tickets, luggage tags etc. You should immediately send them any court or legal documents or other communication you receive about the claim. You are requested not to take any action yourself or ask anyone else to act on your behalf. They assess and finalise the claims only in Australia so the time taken to settle claims will vary from country to country. Within ten business days of receiving all the information, they will inform you whether your claim has been accepted or rejected. While calculating the amount for your claim they consider certain aspects which include the amount of loss, damage or liability, the excess, the policy limit and the terms and conditions of the policy. Once they accept your claim, only they have the right to make or accept any offer or payment, or in any other way admit that you are liable for the claim. They also reserve the right to settle or defend any claim.

Hi Ray,
Thanks for your question.
It depends which policy you take out, and whether you have any pre-existing medical conditions. For example, the Holiday Travel insurance generally covers those up to the age of 75, but if you have asthma as a pre-existing condition you’re covered up to the age of 60.
Please read the Product Disclosure Statement to determine whether you’re covered.
Cheers,
Shirley
Other insurers cover unlimited medical expenses, what does the word “reasonable” imply in your cover
Hi David,
Thanks for your question.
Generally speaking the term ‘reasonable’ means that you have acted in a reasonable way in protecting yourself, or the insured item or service in question.
Cheers,
Shirley
i want to travel to thailand and have coverage for use of a scooter. Is this possible?
Hi Steve,
Thanks for your question.
Suncorp travel insurance generally excludes motorcycles, unless it was hired, the motorcycle has an engine capacity of 200cc or you (as the driver) or the driver (if you are a passenger) holds a current motorcycle license.
Please remember to check the PDS before committing to anything.
Cheers,
Shirley
