CTI Verdict

Tick is one of Australia’s more affordable travel insurers, perfect for budget-conscious travellers. The plans are quick and easy to buy online, kids travel free with parents, and cover is available up to age 100 on the higher-tier plans. Just be mindful that as a budget option, cover limits are lower than premium competitors, so it’s worth checking the fine print if your trip has significant prepaid costs.

    Yes you are. Here's a top tip: Even if you're travelling in Aussie water you still need to pick pacific.
