Worldcare Advises People Buy Travel Insurance At The Same Time As Paying Their Trip Deposit

Despite all the upheaval in the world at the moment, Kiwis are still ‘flying’ the coop and travelling to destinations all over the globe. In today’s unsettled times, taking out travel insurance is as necessary as buying your airline ticket. Worldcare recommend that travellers take out their travel insurance as soon as they book their travel arrangements. What people might not realise is that Worldcare travel insurance is valid from the moment of purchase, not the moment they step on the plane.

A blog on the Worldcare website at http://www.worldcare.co.nz  poses the question, “Did you know that about 40 percent of all travel insurance claims arise before the trip even commences? It could be anything unforeseen, a medical situation or event in the location you are travelling to that prevents you from being able to travel. Be prepared for what could happen and take it out as soon as you’ve booked.” Timely advice from the helpful team at Worldcare. There is a myriad of circumstances which could lead to someone’s trip needing to be cancelled.

It’s also important to choose wisely when contemplating which policy to select and to read the summary of benefits and policy wording carefully. With a premium travel insurance provider like Worldcare, travellers are given the opportunity to select the policy that best suits their requirements and holiday budget.

For those who travel frequently, they might like to consider purchasing the Worldcare GoFreedom policy. This annual policy provides comprehensive cover for multiple journeys over the course of a year. Travellers can return and exit New Zealand any time while their policy is active and the maximum period for any one journey is 60 days.

For anyone not needing high levels of cover, they might find the Worldcare GoBudget policy is perfectly adequate for their travel needs. Alternatively, Worldcare’s GoComprehensive policy provides extensive levels of cover and is one of Worldcare’s most popular travel insurance policies. GoFreedom and GoComprehensive feature an online assessment tool to establish cover and cost for pre-existing medical conditions, meaning people don’t need to fill in a medical form or visit a doctor to get their condition assessed.

With Worldcare, people get the chance to investigate all the options, costs and benefits in gearing up for their New Zealand departure and once everything is sorted, they can relax and enjoy their holiday knowing that they’re in safe hands.
