Do you need domestic travel insurance?

Most of us already have medical cover at home, be it Medicare or private health insurance or both, but there are a few reasons to consider domestic travel insurance.

  • Cancellation: If you've spent a lot on your holiday, then it's not too much extra to buy travel insurance in case of the unforeseen.
  • Baggage cover: If you're travelling with valuables, consider whether you want them covered for theft, loss or damage.
  • Car hire excess: You can save money using travel insurance to cover your collision damage excess, rather than paying the car hire company's extra charge.
  • Activities: If you're skiing or surfing, you may want cover for your equipment outside of your home contents insurance.

      Show only policies that have a price score. Unlike other insurance comparison websites, we don't get paid by any of the insurers we're comparing. This means you won't see a price score for insurers that don't share prices in our price provider program. But it also means we don't recommend insurers based on how much they pay comparison websites. We only recommend the best insurance policies for you.
