Hi there,

Need some advice please....

I am flying from UK to Bangkok, Thailand next Sunday and staying 10 days. I am then going from Thailand to Australia for maximum 12 months. I havent booked a flight home because I don't know what's happening yet.

How do I get travel insurance for this? They all want a return flight home booked???

Thanks

    https://www.worldwideinsure.com is another one to try.

    Google Backpackers Insurance as that may be more appropriate for a long trip.

    Nothing compared to the the cost of hospital bills and flying you home with medical staff etc if your not insured.
