Travel Insurance for couples

Couples travel insurance is a must for any lovebirds travelling overseas, whether you're surprising your partner with a romantic rendezvous to Paris, relaxing on the beaches of Hawaii, backpacking in Europe, or enjoying your honeymoon on a luxury Caribbean cruise!

Immersing yourself in new and different cultural experiences with your significant other can be life-changing, and creates beautiful (and sometimes hilarious!) memories for years to come.

However, things don't always turn out as perfectly as your favourite romantic comedy flick! If your plans take a turn for the worst, it's always nice to know that you may have cover for these unexpected events.

A travel insurance policy provides cover in case of unexpected events, like missing your connecting flight because of bad weather, or if one of you falls ill and needs to go to hospital.

You can also have cover if that sparkly new engagement ring goes missing, or your camera with all the couple selfies you took in Rome gets misplaced.

The best part about our Couples travel insurance is that you save when you purchase your policies together!

What are the benefits of Couples travel insurance?

With Couples travel insurance, both of you are covered as if you were insured separately (excluding Rental Vehicle Insurance Excess) so each of you receive our Single benefit limits.

Depending on which one of our great value policies you choose for your trip, we offer:

  • Cover for Overseas Emergency Medical and Hospital Expenses
  • Medical screening available for your medical conditions
  • Cover for Unexpected Cancellation Costs
  • Cover for your Luggage and Personal Belongings

One Policy

We make travel insurance for couples fast and simple. There’s only one policy, meaning there’s only one policy number, one travel insurance certificate, and one phone number to take with you when you travel.

Save Money

You also save money when you buy insurance as a couple. Compared to buying two single policies, buying a duo policy will save you 5% or more, plus they you can save on Reduced Excess & Rental Vehicle Insurance Excess options.

Planning to travel but have an existing medical condition?

We may be able to help - our travel insurance can provide cover for many existing medical conditions, just in case the unexpected happens on your trip.
