At Fun Over 50 Holidays, we understand the immense value of your dream holiday and the need for comprehensive protection, especially in the current COVID-19 landscape. That’s why we’ve introduced a COVID Refund Secure Policy, so you can have complete peace of mind when booking your next trip with us.
After identifying numerous gaps in travel insurance coverage relating to COVID-19, we decided to bridge these gaps by introducing a dedicated COVID refund policy. That way, you can book your Fun Over 50 Holidays tour without having to worry about financial pressures should you or a close contact catch COVID before your trip.
If your holiday is impacted by COVID and your travel insurance claim falls short of covering the full cost of your trip, our refund policy steps in. As of 01/09/23, the most comprehensive travel insurance policy available only covers up to $5,000 per person for COVID-related cancellations. Our policy covers the shortfall for the tour cost beyond that maximum available coverage.
You must hold a valid travel insurance policy for the COVID Refund Secure policy to apply.
Our ‘COVID Refund Secure - Bridging the Gap’ promise empowers you to join a Fun Over 50 Holidays tour with unwavering confidence. With this promise, we ensure your investment is shielded against unforeseen COVID-related cancellations.
You can read the full terms and conditions relating to our COVID Refund Secure Policy online, or you can send us an email to request a copy from our office.
Whether you’re in the early planning stages or soon to embark on your Fun Over 50 Holidays adventure, you can relax knowing you have our unwavering support should any issues arise. Our COVID Refund Secure Policy underlines our commitment to safeguarding your travel experience amidst uncertainties.
Tour cost per person less $10,000* = gap payment
Tour cost per person less $5,000* per person = gap payment per person
Tour cost per person less $5,000* per person = gap payment per person
*$5,000 is based on the maximum coverage currently available for a domestic COVID related insurance policy – some insurers pay less than this amount.
Travelling within the confines of your own country might seem like a lower risk compared to international holidays, but unforeseen circumstances can arise anytime, anywhere. This is where domestic travel insurance comes into play, offering a safety net that can help you navigate through unexpected challenges and ensure your holiday is as stress-free as possible.
The following information is a guide only; when purchasing travel insurance, please ensure you read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) carefully, to fully understand your policy coverage.
Unforeseen events can have significant repercussions for a traveller. They can include:
If you need to cancel your trip due to unforeseen circumstances, a domestic travel insurance policy can reimburse you for these disruptions, addressing unanticipated expenses for accommodation, meals, and transportation. This sense of security preserves your budget and prevents you from being stranded in an unfamiliar place.
While domestic travel might keep you closer to familiar healthcare facilities, accidents and illnesses can strike without warning. It’s important to note that the Medicare health system might not cover all medical expenses when you’re travelling, and it certainly doesn’t cover evacuation costs. If you fall sick during your tour and need to be transported to a medical facility for treatment, these costs can escalate rapidly. Domestic travel insurance steps in to provide coverage for medical expenses that might not be covered by your regular health insurance and Medicare.
Common ailments like the flu, a sudden fall, or other non-serious health issues can impede your travel plans unexpectedly. In such cases, domestic travel insurance can reimburse you for the non-refundable costs associated with cancellations, ensuring that you’re not left to bear the financial burden.
Travel suppliers, such as hotels, airlines, and tour operators, have their own cancellation policies and fees. If you need to cancel your trip close to the departure date, you will find yourself facing hefty cancellation charges passed on from these providers. Domestic travel insurance can cover these charges, relieving you of the stress of losing a significant amount of money due to circumstances beyond your control.
