When should I buy Standard Saver travel insurance?

It’s up to you when you choose to buy your Standard Saver travel insurance policy, but many travellers prefer to purchase their policy as soon as they book their trip. 

That’s because the Trip Cancellation benefit starts from the moment you purchase your policy, giving you protection if something unexpected happens and you need to cancel before you travel. 

Buying early means you may be covered for eligible pre-departure events, such as illness, injury, or other unforeseen circumstances that may affect your travel plans. However, it’s important to read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) to understand exactly what’s included and any exclusions that may apply. 

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. Always check the PDS carefully so you know exactly what’s included before you travel.
