Long Stay Insurance for Committed TravellersThe UK tends to be a type of Mecca for backpackers and students on their gap year break, largely due to the availability of work for Australians and its convenient
location to Europe, Russia, the Mediterranean and Africa and the range of activities and experiences throughout all these regions. Naturally, with their budget foremost in many students’
minds, many are on the lookout for cheap long stay insurance.
Shopping on the Internet will reveal any number of cheap flights and accommodation deals with some incredible discounts to be had. Shopping around on the Internet will also reveal a host of insurance companies offering long trip travel insurance to backpackers, students and anyone well organised enough to be able to travel long term. It’s important to read and compare policy documents before you buy. What may seem like a really great deal could turn into a nightmare if your hospital, medical and dental expenses are capped or if the excess is so high it’s not worth submitting a claim. Retirees who are now in a position to enjoy extended worldwide travel will also benefit from long stay holiday insurance. Please note that policies can be renewed from overseas, but be sure to remember to do so. There is a tragic story on the Government Smart Traveller web site highlighting the importance of not allowing long stay travel insurance to elapse. The unfortunate traveller required medical evacuation back to Australia after prolonged hospitalisation in the U.S., his family mortgaging their house to pay expenses.
