NIB Travel Insurance has updated its policies to offer increased limits for COVID-19 trip cancellation, and is covering both domestic and international cruises with no add-on to premiums for travellers.

From 11 Oct international travellers with a NIB Travel comprehensive policy can claim up to $10,000 for costs incurred if a trip is cancelled or disrupted due to specific COVID-19 events – a fourfold increase from the previous $2,500 claim limit.

NIB’s Comprehensive Plan also covers unlimited emergency overseas medical costs, with NIB Travel CEO Anna Gladman saying while Australians have embraced travelling again, “their biggest concern is trip cancellation due to COVID-19”.
