Before you travel

Make your travel dreams a reality

• Book your travel arrangements through Diploma Travel
• Apply for a One Stop Travel Loan to help with airfares and accommodation
• Apply for RediCredit, a continuing credit facility to give you access to money while travelling
• Organise travellers cheques, foreign cash and a Cash Passport card depending on your destination. Travellers cheques and foreign cash are commission free if you are an Edvest Member and book through Diploma Travel
• Protect your cards, passport, luggage and valuable possessions
• Consider travel insurance - assistance when you need it worldwide

Access to money while you are away

Don't be stranded overseas with no access to money. Always have three alternative ways to access money in case something unforeseen happens.

• Use your Visa debit card at acceptance locations worldwide
• Use your Redicard to access at any ATM displaying the Visa PLUS logo
• Use your Teachers Credit Card to make purchases at acceptance locations worldwide

IMPORTANT - Visa acceptance issues overseas
