Where should I buy Proof of Travel/Trip Cancellation Insurance?
Question : Where should I buy Proof of Travel/Trip Cancellation Insurance?
I will be going to New Zeland this summer and are requeried to have that type of insurance with the program I am going with. They suggested STA Travel. But it costs 125 for just 31 days. So I thought I would ask here to see if anyone else knew of a better deal.

Best answer:
Those policies are all rip offs, in my opinion. They are overpriced, but when required, are a cost of travel. I have never found a bargain, and usually just go ahead and get the one my travel agent offers.
http://www.worldnomads.com by far has the best rates I’ve ever seen. They tend to be geared towards young backpacker-types, cover a good deal of extreme sports (bungie jumping and the like) but their plans are well-rounded and appropriate for most people.
Best of all, they’re based in Australia so will be very familiar with hospitals and clinics in NZ if you do fall ill.
