Some of you may have experienced the horror of having something go wrong when you go on holiday, but believe me if you are not covered by insurance, it can be like being stuck in a horrible dream. If you lose your luggage, fall ill, or have some form of accident, without cover you are on your own.
Therefore making sure you have a good cover is essential. Not only is the Westpac Earth Platinum travel insurance free to you as a card holder, but it covers you for most eventualities and situations that may occur on you travels.
Here are some of the things they will cover you for:
- Medical and hospital expenses you may incur abroad, for example hospital care, nursing and even some dental treatment.
- Loss or damage to personal property. They do not however cover you for anything that is taken for business purposes, so they really are talking about clothing, cameras, valuables and similar.
- Cancellation expenses, so if for any reason something unexpected stops or delays your travel you may be able to claim.
- Resumption of journey following the death of a family member. In other words if you are delayed or have to return home due to the death of a relative in Australia, you may be covered if you resume your journey.
- Rental Vehicle Excess which will come in handy if you plan on hiring a car while away.
- Funeral expenses, so that if you were to die, your funeral costs will be covered. This is as long as your death was not due to suicide or medical condition that was pre-existing.
