Need travel insurance for your next trip? CGU Travel Insurance offers a range of insurance options. In partnering with CGU Insurance, we can help you access CGU Travel Insurance.

Going overseas?

Travel more and worry less, knowing your travel insurance is sorted if things go wrong while you're away.

CGU Travel Insurance plans give you a choice of cover options which can provide cover for overseas emergency medical expenses, personal liability, luggage and travel documents, cancellation costs and more.

 

​Travelling Australia?

We can help arrange Domestic Travel Insurance for your trip, through Cover-More Travel Insurance.

CGU offers Domestic Comprehensive and Domestic Cancellation plans, if you’re an Australian resident travelling within Australia. Domestic travel insurance can help if something unexpected happens and you need to rearrange or cancel your trip (like if you get sick while you're away).

When you choose Domestic Comprehensive cover, your policy will include cover for:

  • Luggage and travel documents

  • Rental car insurance excess

  • Travel delays

  • Additional travel and accommodation expenses.

This cover has limits, sub-limits and exclusions, so read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) for full details of what’s covered. 

Multi-trip options

CGU offer a range of plans to suit different travel needs and budgets. Annual Multi-Trip plans give you the flexibility to travel without the need to purchase a new policy for every trip. Whether you are planning just one trip this year or several, CGU have a range of travel insurance plans to choose from. CGU's International Comprehensive Plan and Domestic Comprehensive Plan are both available as a Single Trip or Annual Multi-Trip policy. 

Travel Insurance Plan options

Annual multi-trip

Annual multi-trip plans give you the flexibility to travel without the need to purchase a new policy for every trip.

  • Gives you year round cover to destinations that are over 250 km from your home.

  • Gives you year round cover to destinations that are less than 250km from home, if your trip includes at least one night of paid accommodation (like in a hotel or Airbnb).

  • The option to select your preferred trip duration and the flexibility to take an unlimited number of trips within your annual policy period. You can choose 30, 45 or 60 days on the International Comprehensive Plan, or 15 or 30 days on the Domestic Comprehensive Plan.

Single trip  

A Single Trip policy gives you insurance cover for one journey. If you don’t need cover for multiple trips in a year, consider if a Single Trip policy suits your travel needs.
