25/04/2005: "Competitive Insurance for Australia and New Zealand"
As our winter comes to an end, so does the Summer season in Australia, so now's the time to make the best of the waning heat and get over there for the countryside, beaches and friendly culture. For one person, taking a well earned break from work and seeking some relaxation after the cold, wet winter, we can offer some excellently priced policies to insure you are completely covered on your trip.
For one adult, travelling on a single trip to Australia or New Zealand, we have a package priced at £26.99. That's compared to the same cover for £56.00 from the Post Office, £37.49 from Endleigh and £30.00 from Essential Travel.

Common Injuries: Winter Sports
Many people travel overseas for winter sports holidays. Whether your destination
is in Europe, Scandinavia or especially America (since health care is so expensive)
you should always be fully insured. Make sure you:
- Buy travel insurance, which includes mountain
rescue, evacuation and repatriation cover.
- Do not ski off piste unless it is permitted and you are insured to do so.
- Get fit before you go.
- Carry a first aid kit.
- Wear warm clothing.
- Use a high factor sunscreen.
- Do not ski or snowboard when tired.
- Wear all round eye protection such as goggles.
- Be aware of the risks of altitude sickness above 3,000 metres.
- Check ski bindings for security.
- Treat avalanche warnings seriously.
- Avoid skiing after drinking alcohol.
