INSURANCE<br />
CHOOSING THE RIGHT POLICY<br />
When choosing a policy, it’s really important to<br />
understand what it does and doesn’t cover. While<br />
some policies may appear to be the same, quality<br />
cover is more than just high policy limits.<br />
A good policy will provide cover for more than<br />
just your luggage - it will provide cover for the<br />
costs of you having to unexpectedly cancel<br />
or amend your trip, emergency evacuations,<br />
transport, accommodation and medical costs<br />
should you become ill or get injured overseas.<br />
Most importantly, it will give you access to 24<br />
hour emergency assistance should you require<br />
evacuation for medical treatment.<br />
Make sure you check policy luggage item limits;<br />
you might find that you need to purchase<br />
additional cover for valuable items (e.g. a new<br />
camera). Also, check what excess you will be<br />
liable for in the event you need to make a claim -<br />
all our international policies give you a choice of<br />
excess, including a $nil option, which means no<br />
excess will apply.<br />
Like all insurance, there are conditions and<br />
exclusions that apply to our cover. The<br />
information below is a summary only of the cover<br />
available. For full details of about what we do<br />
and don’t cover under each plan and the benefit<br />
limits and sub-limits that apply, please read the<br />
Product Disclosure Statement.<br />
WHY TAKE OUT <strong>STA</strong> TRAVEL INSURANCE?<br />
No two travellers are the same. That’s why we’ve<br />
created a policy that lets you do more...<br />
24 hour emergency assistance<br />
Access to our 24 hour emergency assistance<br />
team for overseas medical emergencies and<br />
evacuations, help with hospital bills and<br />
assistance should you lose your passport or<br />
travel documents.<br />
New for old replacement<br />
Replacement or repair of lost, stolen or damaged<br />
items including mobile phones, tablets, personal<br />
computers and cameras.<br />
Policy extensions<br />
You can see all four corners of the globe on the<br />
one policy and if you decide to stay longer, you can<br />
purchase a new policy for up to 12 months through<br />
<strong>STA</strong> <strong>Travel</strong> prior to expiry of your original policy.<br />
Adventure activities<br />
We automatically cover loads of adrenalin<br />
pumping activities, which means you can<br />
experience heaps more with less stress! You<br />
are also automatically covered for skiing,<br />
snowboarding, moped riding and motorcycle<br />
riding without any additional cost.<br />
Working holidays and studying abroad<br />
Planning on working or studying overseas?<br />
No problem - we cover working holidays and<br />
overseas study.<br />
TOUR CANCELLATION<br />
If your selected tour is cancelled due to<br />
insufficient numbers, we’ll cover amendment<br />
fees to help rearrange your trip and get you on<br />
your way.<br />
Cover for existing medical conditions<br />
We cover a range of pre-existing medical<br />
conditions at no additional charge. A medical<br />
assessment process is available for customers<br />
with conditions or circumstances that fall<br />
outside the specified criteria for automatic<br />
cover. If accepted, other pre-existing medical<br />
conditions will be covered by paying an<br />
additional premium.<br />

inclusions you can expect with your <strong>STA</strong> <strong>Travel</strong><br />

Regardless of your destination, travel insurance is one of<br />
the most important decisions you’ll make when arranging<br />
your holiday. Imagine being sick or injured in a foreign<br />
country where you don’t speak the language. Or worse<br />
still - imagine being refused medical treatment until an<br />
insurance company can guarantee your medical bills. It’s<br />
a scary thought, but these kinds of things happen all too<br />
often, all over the world. Having a 24 hour emergency<br />
assistance team of experienced doctors, nurses and<br />
case managers to call on is why having the right travel<br />
insurance is so important. It gives you peace of mind.<br />
CHOOSE EXTRAS THAT SUIT YOU<br />
Just like making your own playlist to suit your<br />
mood, you can customise your <strong>STA</strong> <strong>Travel</strong> policy<br />
to suit your trip.<br />
CHOOSE AN EXCESS<br />
The higher the excess you choose, the lower your<br />
premium will be. You can choose between a nil,<br />
$100 or $250 excess.<br />
RENTAL VEHICLE INSURANCE EXCESS COVER<br />
Hiring a car or a campervan? Don’t want to pay<br />
a massive excess if you have an accident? You<br />
can purchase $5,000 of Rental Vehicle Insurance<br />
Excess Cover by paying an additional premium.<br />
ANNUAL MULTI-TRIP COVER<br />
If you plan on getting away a few times over the<br />
next 12 months, you might like to consider this<br />
great value cover - a 12 month policy that covers<br />
any number of trips (you choose your maximum<br />
number of days per trip).<br />
