Epidemics and Pandemics

Travel has changed dramatically since COVID-19 became a worldwide pandemic. This product has a general exclusion, with limited exceptions, against epidemics and pandemics. That means the insurer does not cover claims that arise from or are related to an epidemic or pandemic.

However, Westfund Travel Insurance offers cover under selected benefits if, during your period of cover, you are positively diagnosed as suffering a sickness
recognised as an epidemic or pandemic, such as COVID-19. Refer to the Product Disclosure Statement to see which benefits offer cover in the event that you are positively diagnosed as suffering a sickness recognised as an epidemic or pandemic, and the terms, conditions, limits and exclusions that apply.

If a COVID-19 border closure or mandatory quarantine period prevents you from travelling or requires you to shorten your journey while travelling, you may be entitled to cancel your policy and receive a partial or full premium refund; refer to the Product Disclosure Statement for terms and conditions.

Choosing the plan that's right for you

Depending on your age, where you are travelling to, the length of your trip, you may be offered one, two or three different plans. The below is only a summary.   *Terms, conditions, limits and exclusions apply. Please refer to the Product Disclosure Statement for full details. The TMD is available here
