Ready to go 95 Posted February 23, 2014 We are starting our move out to Australia at the end of March and treating ourselves to a holiday to start out new lives. However I am not sure what to do about insurance to cover us on the journey (stopping in Malaysia for 2 weeks) then traveling up the coast from Sydney (having picked up the dog from quarantine). I have travel insurance through my bank account, but don't know if this will cover my en-route or when we first arrive for medical bills etc. What does everyone else do?

VERYSTORMY 3,388 Posted February 23, 2014 You just need normal travel insurance until you get to Oz. Once in Oz, then you would be covered by Medicare. Be aware that the free insurance offered by banks is rarely sufficient and I would take separate cover. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
