Hi All,
I was about to apply for my travel insurance with Travel Insurance Direct - low cost travel insurance for Australians and noticed that for their rental car vehicle excess cover that they only allow certain types of vehicles and it does not cover convertibles. I'm planning on going on a road trip with friends in the US and we're set on getting a convertible. Unfortunately I'm in a rush to pay my airfare today because the TA has told me that the RTW fares will increase tomorrow and I would like to buy my travel insurance before I pay my full amount.
1. Does anyone know off the top of their head of any insurance companies that cover convertibles?
2. If not, how do people get insured? via the rental agency? Will that cost more?
3. Could I still pay my airfare today and then buy my travel insurance at a later date? Or is it preferable to buy before hand?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Len
