Knightsbridge x PassportCard
PassportCard, formerly known as Travelcard, has undergone a rebrand and relaunch in Australia to offer travellers real-time claims processing. With PassportCard, you can get instant payouts for common claims like medical emergencies, delayed luggage, and stolen cash. Once a claim is approved—usually over the phone in just minutes—the funds are loaded onto the PassportCard, a prepaid debit card given when you purchase the insurance. This card lets you easily pay medical providers, buy essentials, or withdraw cash from an ATM.

Why shouldn’t I just purchase the cheapest policy?
Although it is tempting to purchase a cheaper policy, it may not meet your travel needs. After all, you want to protect yourself with the ideal cover. Knightsbridge Insurance Group makes sure the policy you choose offers the right coverage and value for money.
Why should I use an insurance broker for travel insurance?
Insurance policies are complicated, and Knightsbridge does the policy shopping for you. There’s no need to browse through thousands of policies online! We simplify the ‘insurance jargon’ and represent you, not the insurer.
How often should my travel insurance be reviewed?
Depending on the severity of the risks, you should consider a risk review yearly at a minimum. If policies are prone to frequent change, Knightsbridge recommends a quarterly or bi-annual review.

When should I purchase travel insurance?
We recommend purchasing travel insurance immediately after making your first trip payment or deposit. Buying early provides the longest possible period of pre-departure coverage for cancellation and ensures you’re protected if unexpected events prevent your travel. This approach is particularly important for coverage of unforeseen events like illness or accidents that might occur in the months or weeks before your departure date. While you can purchase travel insurance up until you depart, waiting limits your pre-trip protection and may affect coverage for some pre-existing conditions.
Does travel insurance cover pre-existing medical conditions?
Most standard travel insurance policies exclude pre-existing medical conditions unless they’re declared and specifically accepted by the insurer. Some minor or well-controlled conditions may be automatically covered without additional premium, while others require medical assessment and may incur an additional cost. It’s essential to disclose all pre-existing conditions when applying for travel insurance, as failure to do so could invalidate claims even for unrelated medical events. If your condition isn’t covered, we can often arrange specialised policies designed for travellers with specific health concerns.
How often should my travel insurance be reviewed?
You should review your travel insurance before each trip to ensure it aligns with your current circumstances and destination requirements. Additionally, conduct immediate reviews when:
- Your health situation changes or you develop new medical conditions
- You plan to engage in activities not covered by standard policies (adventure sports, cruises, etc.)
- Your trip duration, destination, or itinerary changes
- Your personal circumstances shift (pregnancy, changes to travelling companions, etc.)
- You make significant purchases for the trip (expensive camera equipment, jewellery, etc.)
- International travel advisories or health situations (like pandemics) evolve
For frequent travellers, we recommend considering annual multi-trip policies with regular reviews at renewal time to ensure the coverage limits and benefits remain appropriate for your travel patterns.
