Travelling with kids

Cover can’t be bought for a child under the age of 18 alone. A child under 18 can be added to our family policies where at least one adult over the age of 18 is also going on the trip (single trip policies).

A child can be added to annual multi trip family policies where the insured adult will travel later in the policy term. Each insured child under the age of 18 will only be covered if they’re travelling with a responsible adult. This adult doesn’t need to be insured with us.

Your Admiral policy will cover trips to:

• Northern Ireland
• England
• Scotland
• Wales
• The Isle of Man
• Channel Islands

You must be travelling more than 25 miles away from your home address and staying for two or more consecutive nights to get the cover.

If you or someone covered by your policy becomes ill or is injured during your trip and needs emergency medical treatment, please go to a public medical facility and contact our 24-hour emergency assistance line on +44 (0)29 2010 7777 as soon as you can.

Please call this number if you're unsure where to get treatment, you think costs may go over £500, or you think you'll need to cut your trip short.

For minor ailments while abroad, pharmacies and public health facilities are often able to give advice and provide treatment. If costs are more than the policy excess and you want to make a claim, please keep all receipts and call our claims line on 0333 234 9914.

Admiral Single Trip and Annual Travel Insurance policies cover pregnancy and you won’t pay more for your cover as it’s not considered a pre-existing medical condition. You’ll get the standard cover for things like:

• Lost luggage
• Travel disruption
• Lost or stolen belongings.

We’ll also cover the costs of any emergency medical treatment you receive as the result of complications during your pregnancy.

Absolutely – we offer family holiday insurance for families living at the same address. This can be parents, step-parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and children under 18.

You can add up to two adults and a maximum of five children to the cover. Simply add on our winter sports upgrade for cover on the slopes.
