About Travel Insurance

Travel insurance is often overlooked by holiday makers, but is well worth considering - in many cases it can be as essential as your passport. It is important to get the right type of insurance for your trip, so that you are sufficiently covered and can receive the correct treatment and support should something go wrong.

Travel insurance plans can provide cover for every holiday, with different types of travel insurance available for frequent flyers, skiing and winter sports enthusiasts, families and gap year students and travellers embarking on a backpacking holiday.

Plans typically provide cover for unforeseen events such as flight delays and cancellations, loss or theft of certain items, such as passports, wallets, money and travellers cheques, and any medical expenses incurred are typically covered by all plans, with extra levels of cover available for winter sports, in case of loss or breakage of ski equipment, and other outdoor activities such as rock climbing, abseiling and mountain biking. Cover for expensive golfing equipment and greens fees can also be bought alongside most travel insurance policies.

If you plan to take more than two trips per year it can be cheaper to buy an annual holiday insurance policy, rather than buy two separate single trip travel insurance policies. Travel Insurance policies can often be taken in conjunction with car insurance plans that come with European cover, if you are intending to take your vehicle on holiday with you.
