Travel Insurance Policy

A Travel Insurance Policy will hopefully be something you don’t have to worry about when travelling – but it is certainly something you need to sort out before you leave. Cover can be hard to arrange once you’re on the road. Book with a reputable insurer before leaving home.

Be Covered For Where You’re Going

This sounds obvious, but check that your cover will apply where you’re going, especially if you’re visiting popular destinations destinations just outside what may be considered Europe, such as Morocco or Turkey.

And For What You’re Doing

One of the most important things to remember to check in your travel insurance policy is the adventures that you are planning for on your trip are covered. Attempting to ski? Going Rock climbing? Make sure that your travel insurance policy extends to cover these. Read the travel insurance policy carefully to see if there is restrictions relating to, for example, going off-piste. Best of all, plan ahead before you go to be sure you’re covered for any activity you might take. 

How Much Cover?

It may seem like your medical provision amounts to mind-bogging millions that you will need, but remember this is worst case scenario stuff. As dramatic as it sounds, imagine the cost of you having to be medically repatriated. The highest levels of cover are worth it if you’re going to the USA, where health care is expensive.
