If in any doubt, single-trip travel insurance is pretty cheap, and buys a lot of peace-of-mind.
Yes, the responders at the other forum make it very clear that the T &Cs vary very widely among the cards - ANZ platinum only requiring a $250 spend while travelling, CBA a $500 spend and Westpac requires 100% spend.

Without input from experienced people, it can look like a potential minefield.
