What travel insurance region is Antarctica in?
For Fast Cover travel insurance purposes, Antarctica comes under the Worldwide region.
The Worldwide region includes all the countries and territories in the world. However, please note:
- We cannot provide cover for destinations listed as “Do Not Travel” on the Australian Government’s Smartraveller website.
- Certain destinations — including remote or expedition-style travel such as Antarctica — may have specific exclusions or limits under the general exclusions in our Product Disclosure Statement (PDS).
Always check the PDS carefully for all the details so you know exactly what’s included before you decide to purchase travel insurance and before embarking on the journey.
If you’re unsure or need clarification, our friendly customer service team is here to help.
Every claim is reviewed individually on a case-by-case basis and will only be paid if it meets the terms, conditions, limits, and exclusions in your policy.
