What should I check when comparing travel insurance quotes for an overseas trip?

A SureCover Team Answered by

When comparing travel insurance quotes, look beyond the price and check the policy’s overseas medical, cancellation, luggage and personal liability cover. Read the limits, excesses and exclusions, particularly for pre-existing medical conditions, adventure activities, cruises and travel disruptions. Make sure the policy dates match your entire trip and that you disclose relevant information accurately, as this can affect a claim. Quotes and cover vary between insurers, so review the Product Disclosure Statement and confirm any concerns with the insurer before buying.
