We advise you to take out a travel insurance policy for both domestic and international travel, with nib Travel Insurance being our recommended travel insurance partner.

Travel insurance can offer coverage for:

• Lost, stolen, or damaged luggage, smartphones, tablets, and computers
• Travel delays
• 24/7 Medical assistance
• Rental car excess
• And more

It’s crucial to understand that insurance policies can have varying stipulations when it comes to COVID-19 coverage. For instance, if you secure a policy within 21 days of your departure date and have already arranged other aspects of your travel (such as flights, tours, or accommodation), you might not be covered for those pre-booked, paid components if you’re diagnosed with COVID-19 prior to your departure and are unable to travel.

Ensure you review and comprehend the conditions of the insurance policy before making a purchase.
