Here’s a rundown of Tick Travel Insurance

Purchasing a travel insurance policy does take a bit of reading and three of the most important things you’ll need to be clear on are what’s covered, what’s not covered and what can you add on if you need it. Take the time to read the Product Disclosure Statement in full so you’ll be confident that you’re getting the right amount of cover for your trip.

Standard benefits

Tick Travel Insurance policies have a lot of benefits that can cover you for a wide variety of travel-related mishaps. Here are some of the key policy benefits to help you decide if Tick is the right provider for you:

• Overseas medical cover. If you ever need medical or hospital treatment when overseas, Tick will cover the cost of your treatments
• Emergency costs. For trip disruption or if you’re required to return home, you’ll be covered for additional accommodation, meals and travelling expenses that are above what you originally budgeted for
• Cancellations, curtailments and journey resumptions. Cover for when you need to cancel your holiday or cut your trip short due to an unforeseen event such as an illness or injury
• Travel delay expenses. Whether it’s bad weather, a strike or mechanical breakdown, if your travel is delayed by more than 12 hours, you’ll be reimbursed for any necessary meals and accommodation expenses
• Baggage and valuables. If your belongings are lost, stolen or damaged during your trip, this covers the cost of repair or replacement
• Baggage delays. For baggage that’s delayed by more than 24 hours, you’ll be covered for essential items you need to buy in the interim, including toiletries and clothes
• Personal liability. Cover for costs you’re liable for if you’re involved in an incident overseas that causes harm to another individual or property
• Rental vehicle excess waiver. If a hire car is on the agenda, this will cover you for any excess you might owe due to an accident or theft of the vehicle
• Pet care. Leaving your furry friend behind? If your flight is delayed by more than 24 hours on your way home and your pet is in a kennel or cattery, you’re covered for any additional boarding costs
• Personal accident. You’ll be paid a lump sum if an accident caused by external factors results in certain permanent disabilities

Optional extras

With Tick Travel Insurance, you can tailor your policy with add ons based on what you’ll be doing on your holiday. Make sure to review product disclosure document in full so you know exactly what you’ll be covered for.
