These problems vary from a stolen passport or lost luggage, to a serious medical emergency needing to be flown home by air ambulance. Whatever the issue, having proper travel insurance means having peace of mind. We like to think that’s the key to a happy holiday.
Proper travel insurance not only saves you the worry that comes with the worst happening, but the strain on your bank balance too.

Data covers Jan 2005 - Jan 2023It’s important you declare diverticulitis and any other pre-existing medical condition you may have, when taking out a policy with us.
You can declare your medical condition through our online medical screening process, which is a straightforward set of questions for us to understand how your medical conditions affect you. Or, if you prefer, you can complete the medical screening over the phone.
It’s important that all pre-existing conditions are declared on your medical travel insurance policy. This will avoid large medical bills if you need treatment in another country. Failure to disclose any pre-existing medical conditions may affect the validity of your policy should you need to claim.
