 SENIORS TRAVEL INSURANCE FAQ's

You've reached retirement and finally have the freedom to travel and explore new
parts of the world. Before adventuring across the globe to visit the grandkids or new sights, it's important to get the right cover.
 

  • q. Are there any age limits?
  • Persons of any age can buy a policy, however trip limits do apply. Those under 69 years can purchase a policy for a maximum trip duration of 18 months. Those over 70 can purchase a policy for a maximum trip duration of six months only.

  • Q. Can I buy a policy if I have pre-existing medical conditions?
  • Yes, of course. Having a pre-existing condition shouldn’t stop you from travelling and seeing the world! Some conditions are automatically covered, while others will require some further detail from you before we can proceed. Please visit our pre-existing medical conditions page to get started.

  • Q. Are there any conditions you do not cover?
  • Regretfully there are some conditions we do exclude from cover. If you require oxygen for your holiday, are suffering from chronic renal failure, have been diagnosed with aids, are awaiting organ transplant or have a terminal prognosis we will not be able to cover your condition. However, you can still purchase a policy that will cover you for a range of additional benefits such as travel delays or lost luggage. Please refer to the Policy Document for section exclusions.

  • Q. WHAT ITEMS DO YOU COVER? 
  • No doubt you’ll be taking a few expensive items away with you. Our plans provide different levels of cover for cameras phones and laptops. 

  • Q: Do I need to purchase separate cruise cover? 
  • No, we don’t charge any extra if you’re heading on a cruise. With TINZ, you’re covered from ship to shore.

  • Q) Am I covered if I am travelling on a cruise liner within New Zealand waters?
  • Travellers on domestic cruises in New Zealand Waters must purchase an international travel insurance plan to ensure cover is available for emergency assistance and medical and hospital expenses when onboard.

  • Q: Am I covered if I fall over and break a hip?
  • Yes, all our policies cover for unlimited medical benefits. If you were to have an unforeseen accident on holiday your medical expenses would be covered.

  • Q. Am I covered if I want to cancel my holiday?
  • Think hard before booking your trip as you are not covered for change of mind. Our cancellation benefits will cover you for transport and accommodation expenses if you experience delays or cancellation of your travel plans due to unforeseen reasons. For instance, you would be covered for circumstances out of your control such as sudden illness, accidents, natural disaster and more. For more detail see our Policy Document.

  • Q. Is my luggage covered?
  • Yes! Provided you look after luggage and do not leave it unattended we cover you for theft, damage, delay and loss of your luggage and personal items.
