Family Travel Insurance FAQs

  • Why Do I need a cruise travel insurance for my family holiday?
  • Once you're out on open water, this is classed as overseas and as such you will not be covered by the public health system. You will need to select our Cruise Pack add-on, selecting the Australia Cruise region. This add-on is available with Comprehensive policies. This ensures you are covered for full medical coverage whilst on board, as well as cancellations, missed departures, lost luggage, and more.

  • If my family needs to stay longer overseas, can we extend our policy?
  • Yes, you can apply to extend your policy by either getting in contact with our friendly call centre team or alternatively you can log in to our Policy Manager.

    We advise that you log in to the Policy Manager or contact us as soon as you know you need to extend your policy (ideally 7 days (AEST) before your policy is due to expire), so that we can make sure your extension is guaranteed. Once a policy lapses we are unable to extend it.

  • How much of the holiday do my kids need to be with me for?
  • They need to be with you for 100% of the time to be classed as a dependant for the purposes of a Family Travel Insurance policy.
