Travel insurance for your outbound trip
I have a couple of places to get medical/travel insurance for the trip out. Ordinary travel insurance is unlikely to cover you since most require you to be UK resident and to be on a round trip.
Brian Naughton at Letton Percival is one: 0151 236 4568
InsureandGo is another on 0870 901 3674
I can't vouch for either of course - and I hope not to be in a position where I CAN!

Just to add, hope you don't mind Rog, we booked our flights with Austravel and used their insurance, cost £25 for 5 days for 3 of us!
hope this helps

Hi
Insure & Go don't do 'One Way' travel insurance!
17 days cover for 3 Adults - £85.50 with www.go-walkabout.co.uk
You need to give yourself 10 days in Oz before you can register for Medicare.

>>The following quote will cover you for medical until you arrive in Sydney and will expire 24hrs after you go through Immigration. <<
I agree it is necessary to check carefully that any policy DOES cover you in this unique situation - not because it's very expensive but in case of claim.
