What is covered under travel insurance?

Travel insurance generally helps cover you for things that can unexpectedly go wrong when you travel.

If you’re going overseas, it could help with things like getting sick or injured and needing medical care, losing your luggage, having to cancel your trip for a covered reason, or if something happens to your rental car. Some travel insurance policies give you the option to add additional cover when you are riding a motorbike or skiing.

If you’re travelling within Australia, it could cover things like your lost or stolen luggage, if you have to cancel your trip for a covered reason, rental car issues, and other unexpected problems.

It is important to review the PDS to understand the product and coverage available.

Terms, conditions, exclusions, limits and sub-limits apply.

What does travel insurance not cover?

Travel insurance, in general, is designed to cover you for a range of unforeseen incidents while you are travelling. However, not all things are covered. As an example, your bicycle is not covered under the Velosure Travel policy, and you will need to take out a Velosure Bicycle policy to cover your bicycle while travelling. We suggest you make sure you read the PDS & TMD for all cover details.

When is a good time to buy your travel insurance?

The best time to buy would be after you have confirmed and committed to your next trip. Consider your needs and planned itinerary to make sure you get the travel insurance that suits your needs. You can still purchase travel insurance up until your journey departs.

Who is eligible to buy travel insurance?
  • Anyone between the ages of 18 and 99 for Domestic and International and 18 to 69 for Multi Trip.
  • Your departure date is no more than 12 months from the date of purchase.
  • You are an Australian resident (applicable to international travel only)
  • You have not yet departed on your trip
Do you offer international and domestic travel insurance?

Yes, Velosure Travel Insurance offers coverage for local, international and international multi-trip options. Just select your destination as you progress with your quote.

How do I make changes to my policy?

Yes, you can contact our team on (02) 8880 5820 to request any changes to your travel dates anytime before your travel starts.

You can cancel your policy within the cooling-off period (21 days of purchase and before you travel) for a full refund. If you need to cancel after the cooling-off period and you satisfy our eligibility conditions, premiums will be refunded pro-rata from the cancellation date.

Refunds are only possible if:

  • You have not started your trip
  • Have not claimed
  • You are not planning to claim.

When a policy cancellation has been accepted, we will process your refund within 15 business days.

How much is my excess?

You will select your excess amount when purchasing your policy. You can find your selected excess on your Certificate of Insurance.

This excess is applied on a per Insured Person, per event basis. If an event triggers benefits under multiple covers or sections, the highest relevant excess will apply.

Can I extend my policy if I extend my travel dates?

This should be possible in most cases. Please contact our team on (02) 8880 5820 to explore a policy extension. We will consider whether the original policy has lapsed. In the case of a travel delay due to a covered event, the policy automatically extends at no extra cost until you are back in Australia via the fastest route.

Do I have coverage for trip cancellation?

Trip cancellation will be covered based on policy terms and conditions when there are unforeseen changes, like medical issues, unforeseen illness or an unexpected passing.

Please see PDS for full details.

Do I need to declare my pre-existing conditions?

We don’t require you to declare pre-existing symptoms and conditions when purchasing your policy.

Important to know that, unless it is on our list of automatically covered pre-existing medical conditions, coverage doesn’t apply for losses caused by these symptoms/conditions.

We define pre-existing symptoms and conditions as those known, investigated, treated, or requiring prescribed meds/surgery in the 12 months before buying the policy. The definition extends to you, fellow travellers, close relatives, or anyone named on the Certificate of Insurance. See more here velosure.com.au/pre-existing-medical-conditions

Do I have coverage if I take part in sports and activities during my trip?

Your policy provides coverage for certain non-competitive sports and leisure activities that include bicycling, recreational mountain biking, and bicycle tours with a licensed tour operator. The policy has some adventure activities that are on the exclusions list; these are listed on page 42-43 of the PDS.

Do you offer coverage while I am participating in a timed cycling event?

You can include coverage while participating in Amateur Cycling Events by adding the optional coverage. There are exclusions that apply, these include races in a professional or sponsored capacity as well as sactioned professional races. Please refer to the PDS for details. (Only available in the International Single Trip Policy)

Do you offer coverage for extreme snow sports?

The Snow Pack doesn’t cover certain snow activities. Off-piste skiing (unless guided), freestyle skiing, ski-jumping, acrobatics, stunts, extreme skiing/snowboarding, skeleton, luge, and similar activities aren’t covered under this policy. Please review the PDS under the Optional Snow Pack section for details.

What is covered in the Snow Pack?

If you want coverage on the slopes, you will need to select the optional Snow Pack. When you are participating in winter sports, such as amateur skiing, snowboarding and sledding, on groomed terrain, marked slopes or trails that are maintained and monitored within ski resort boundaries, we’ll cover costs for the below:

  • Prepaid Costs: We’ll pay for non-refundable, prepaid ski lift passes, snow sport equipment, hire or tuition fees you can’t use due to injury or illness sustained during your trip.
  • Ski run closure: We’ll pay if you’re prevented from skiing at a pre-booked ski resort for more than 24 continuous hours during your trip due to insufficient snow or too much snow causing a total closure of the lift system.
  • Hiring replacement snow sports equipment: If your snow sports equipment is lost, delayed, or damaged during the trip, we’ll pay the necessary cost of hiring replacement equipment.

All claims must be supported by receipts. For payable limits, please refer to the PDS.

Do you offer coverage for dental treatment?

Your policy covers up to AUD $2,000 per insured person for essential temporary dental treatment to relieve immediate pain or discomfort in healthy teeth. Coverage extends to dentures or orthodontic appliances that need emergency repairs for eating comfort.

Am I covered for riding a motorbike or scooter overseas?

If you have opted for our Motorcycle and Moped Pack, you will be covered if you hire a motorcycle or moped as a rider during your trip.

However, there are exclusions if:

  • The engine capacity is greater than 250cc;
  • You don’t hold a valid Australian Motorcycle or Motor Vehicle licence;
  • You are driving without a helmet or participating in a race, motocross, or in a professional capacity.
Am I covered if I am on a cruise?

With our Cruise Pack add-on, you will be covered for claims relating to or while cruising during your trip. For example, in the event of an illness requiring cabin confinement, we’ll pay up to the limits applicable for the Hospital benefit and confinement.

For general exclusions and special conditions, please refer to the PDS.

Am I covered for renting a vehicle?

If you rent a vehicle during your trip that includes comprehensive car insurance cover, you will need to select the Rental Vehicle Excess optional cover to be covered.

We’ll cover you for the rental vehicle insurance excess or repair costs (whichever is lower) you’re liable for if the rental vehicle is damaged or stolen while in your control during the trip; or the cost of returning your rental vehicle to the nearest depot, including related airport concession charges, if you can’t return the vehicle due to an event covered by this policy.

We won’t cover any claim for an event occurring outside the hire dates nominated on the Certificate of Insurance, or the operation of a rental vehicle in violation of the terms of the rental agreement. For example, driving on unsealed roads.

For general exclusions and special conditions relating to this option, please see the PDS.

Do you cover pet boarding?

If your return to Australia is delayed for at least 24 hours, due to reasons beyond your control, we will cover up to AUD $200 per day to a maximum of AUD $1400 if you have selected this option as part of your policy and need to extend your pet boarding arrangements.

Note that not all benefits apply and will depend on whether you have selected them (and are reflected on your Certificate of Insurance). Terms, conditions, exclusions, limits and sub-limits apply. Please read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) and Target Market Determination (TMD) for further details.
