16 Section B: Cancellation and additional expenses Section B1 Cancellation or holiday deferment costs Period of cover The cover under this benefit commences from the date you meet the eligibility criteria, and ceases; (a) when you complete your trip; (b) when you return to your home in Australia; or (c) 6 months after the date of departure from your home in Australia to go on your trip; whichever occurs first. If you have to cancel any pre-paid travel arrangements due to any of the unforeseen circumstances outside of your control listed below, we will pay the value of the unused travel arrangements, less any refunds due to you, or the reasonable cost of rearranging your trip, provided that this cost is not greater than the cancellation fees or lost deposits which would have been incurred had the trip been cancelled. The circumstances are: your unforeseen death, accidental injury or illness; the unforeseen death, accidental injury or illness of your relative under 80 years of age or your business partner or your travelling companion; or any unforeseen circumstances beyond your control, except for the circumstances listed under What is not covered? below. We will also pay the agent s cancellation fees up to $500 per person, when full monies have been paid. If only a deposit has been paid at the time of the cancellation we will pay the agent s cancellation fees up to the maximum of the deposit. In any event we will not pay more than the level of commission or service fees normally earned by the agent, had the trip not been cancelled. Conditions If cancellation is due to your illness or injury you must provide us with documentation from your treating doctor to confirm you are medically unfit to commence or continue with your trip. We will not pay for cancellation or holiday deferment costs unless these costs are medically justified and if you have already commenced your trip you must have our consent. We will not pay if you have to cancel or rearrange your pre-paid travel arrangements because of the unforeseen death, injury or illness of a person who is: your relative aged 80 years or over; not your business partner; not your travelling companion. We will not pay for the value of unused pre-paid transport costs where we have repatriated you a distance equivalent to, or greater than, the total distance remaining on your itinerary at the point of repatriation. Where the total distance of the repatriation is less than the unused travel arrangements we will calculate your entitlement on a pro-rata basis, taking into account the cost of your original ticket. Section B2 Emergency travel arrangements and accommodation expenses We will cover you for expenses you incur for reasonable additional travel, accommodation, meals and internet use and emergency telephone calls less any refunds you are entitled to, if you have to interrupt your trip after it has begun due to unforeseen circumstances outside your control. We will pay the higher of the non refundable cancellation fees (under Section B1) or the additional rearrangement costs that have been incurred as a result of the same event

17 Conditions 1. Any additional travel you undertake must be at the fare class that you originally chose, except where we agree differently on the basis of a written recommendation from your treating doctor. 2. If you do not hold a return travel ticket to Australia when the event that causes you to interrupt your trip happens, we will deduct from any claim which includes the cost of your repatriation to Australia, an amount equal to your original published one way economy class travel ticket for the route used for your return. We will not pay: 1. any expenses you incur to resume your trip after you have returned to your home in Australia except as set out under section D3 Resumption of trip. 2. for additional accommodation where you have claimed for cancelled accommodation expenses covering the same period of time or for additional transport costs in excess of the distance of the cancelled travel arrangements. 3. any accommodation expenses for periods where you have not forfeited pre-paid accommodation arrangements. 4. any extra travel and accommodation expenses you incur because of the unforeseen death, injury or illness of a person who is: your relative aged 80 years or over; not your business partner; not your travelling companion. Section B3 Loss of award or loyalty points Period of cover The cover under this benefit commences from the date you make your booking with your award or loyalty points and it ceases: (a) when you complete your trip; (b) when you return to your home in Australia; or (c) 6 months after the date of departure from your home in Australia to go on your trip; whichever occurs first. We will cover you for the value of your lost award or loyalty points because of an event covered under Section B1 Cancellation or holiday deferment costs. Conditions We will choose between paying for or reinstatement of lost frequent flyer or similar flight award or loyalty points, due to the cancellation of your airline ticket or accommodation arrangements. If your airline ticket or accommodation was paid for in full with points, we may choose to reinstate or pay for your lost points. If we choose to pay for your lost points, we will pay you the cost of a ticket in an equivalent class or equivalent accommodation, in the same travel season as your cancelled booking. If your airline ticket or accommodation was paid partly in cash and partly in points, under this Section B3 Loss of award or loyalty points, we will either reinstate or refund you for your lost points. Where we are unable to reinstate your lost points, the amount we will pay is calculated as follows: (a) the cost of the equivalent class airline ticket or accommodation, for the same season, less your financial contribution towards the airline ticket or accommodation; (b) multiplied by the total amount of points lost; (c) divided by the total amount of points redeemed to obtain the airline ticket or accommodation Equivalent class advance purchase airfare $1,000 or accommodation Points lost 5,000 Points redeemed to obtain original ticket or 20,000 accommodation Claimable amount = $1,000 x 5000 $250 20,
