heya all,

ive just been shopping around for travel insurance and have seen for 12 months most companies want something like AUD$1400 which is a lot of money. well i was searching the net and found a link from lonely planet for world nomads travel insurance which came at approx. AU$600 which is heaps cheaper

does anyone know if these guys are any good??? like service, ease of claiming etc???

thanks in advance for your help!

Hmmm.. dunno about them, but I'm curious -what happened to TravelPunk Travel Insurance? The link's there, but when you try to go in, it says it's temporarily disabled

I haven't been able to access it (travelpunk's insurance site) for the last month. Does anybody know of another way to get access to it? I'm leaving in 10 days and would really like to get this insurance before it's too late!!
