Don't Rush Travel Insurance

Newcastle Herald

Wednesday March 14, 2001

IF you're planning an overseas trip, you'll need travel insurance.

And rather than arranging it on the run, you'll get the best results if you give it the same type of attention you give to arranging flights, accommodation and tours for your holiday.

It's worth taking the time to shop around for insurance to make sure you obtain the cover, price and options that best suit your needs.

One way to do this is through Aussietravelcover, an innovative insurer which is underwritten by AIG, the world's largest travel insurance underwriter.

A 100% Australian-owned company, Aussietravelcover has been packaging travel insurance for almost two decades.

It has now developed an easy-to-use brochure, complete with a range of useful tips on food, health, hygiene and travel issues.

The brochure features details on a variety of matters including a full range of overseas and domestic covers, annual packages for frequent and corporate travellers, and non-residents cover.

It also looks at means of covering a range of special needs including:

* Non-residents up to 75 years of age for up to 12 months.

* `Super 35' cover packages for people 35 years and under, providing unlimited medical cover worldwide at reduced rates.

Aussietravelcover also offers a 24-hour, seven-day global emergency assistance service which is provided by the world's largest medical assistance provider, AXA Assistance.

For more information about the services available, ring Aussietravelcover on 1800 888 448 or visit the organisation's website at www.aussietravelcover.com.au.
