TRAVEL INSURANCE

“I didn’t even notice my bag was opened... now I have no passport or cash.”
Pick-pocketers can strike even the most security conscious traveller. Their methods are getting more and more sophisticated, and often you are completely unaware your bag has even been opened and your precious items are gone. Jess, one of our Travel Experts, was admiring the sights of Amsterdam when she reached into her bag for water and noticed it was unzipped. Luckily with her travel insurance policy, the 24 hour Allianz Global Assistance team helped her with how to report the crime and get her emergency travel documents sorted.

“I took ‘break a leg’ literally.”
While you might be aware of the things that could happen while you’re overseas, you rarely consider what might happen BEFORE you leave that could result in you not being able to go on your adventure. Nat, a STA Travel store manager, was planning to head away on an exciting trip to South America, but a hike in the Waitakere Ranges before departure resulted in a broken ankle. Luckily, as she had purchased travel insurance when she booked her flights, she was covered for all non-refundable cancellation charges and could re-book her trip for a few months' time.
