Post Travel insurance

Hi, We are moving to Melbourne in a few weeks time and need travel insurance to get us there - BUT struggling as we are coming through Hong Kong and spending 6 days there - so don't qualify for 'one way insurance'!!! Does anyone have any suggestions or names of a company they used???

Should it really be this hard??

Thanks

IandM

Hi, I'm looking for similar insurance (want cancellation cover, medical, lost baggage etc.) as we have a 3 day stopover in Singapore. Through searches on this site I have found a few recommendations for:

http://www.duinsure.com/sites/duinsu...pages/homepage

It would be helpful if anyone has used this company or knows of any similar could recommend?

Anyway, hope this helps

The insurance company got straight back to me - fully comprehensive cover £20 per person for 10 days travel. Jobs a good one! Thanks for the info - give them a ring if you haven't already

I bought comprehensive cover for our trip a few hours ago and v impressed with them. Especially that they allowed me to waive the excess fees for only an extra £2.20! Very pleased with the level of cover we have and at £22.20 for a five day policy for both my partner and I

Would recommend this company to anyone looking for insurance when travelling to Oz with a stopover included!

Go Walkabout does one way travel insurance for around 17 days which covers you for a stop-over and a few days once you arrive in Oz. I think we paid about 70 quid.
