Travel insurance

You need travel insurance as it can help cover the cost of medical care abroad. It can also cover you for lost or stolen items, trip delays and more. From single trip cover to longer journeys, we can help you with a travel insurance comparison. 

Picking the right travel insurance policy depends on how often you’re travelling, how long you’ll be away and the kinds of things you’ll be getting up to abroad. The most common types are as follows.

The type of cover you’ll need will vary depending on the type of travelling you’re doing. A couple of weeks in the sun, a skiing holiday or six months travelling will all require different types of insurance.

You’ll want to pick a policy with the right level of cover and inclusions for you. For example, comprehensive policies will typically cover you for the following: loss of baggage, theft, cancellation, medical treatment, public liability and emergency repatriation.

You should also be able to add extras to your policy for anything which isn’t included as standard.
