What's travel insurance?
Travel insurance, also known as holiday insurance, protects you and your family against unexpected costs while you're travelling or on holiday.
While it isn't a legal requirement, it covers the cost of things like medical expenses if you get ill or injured abroad, trip cancellation, stolen personal belongings and lost luggage.
Choose from three levels of cover
We have three cover levels for you to choose from, depending on the level of protection you want for your next trip.

What isn’t covered by travel insurance?
This list isn’t exhaustive and doesn’t include exclusions for our specialist travel insurance like adventurous sport and winter sport.
- flights cancelled or delayed for any reason other than severe weather conditions, strike, or mechanical breakdown
- claims related to flights that don't start or end in the UK (connected flights)
- trip cancellation because you’ve changed your mind
- pre-existing conditions you've not declared
- claims related to death or illness of someone not on the policy linked to pre-existing conditions they had at any time before you bought your policy

- being denied entry because you don't have passports or the correct visas

However, check your policy book for all exclusions.
Travelling with pre-existing medical conditions
If you have a pre-existing medical condition, you must tell us about it when getting a quote to see if we can offer cover and to avoid invalidating your policy. We can't cover your pre-existing medical conditions unless you've:
- declared them all on your policy
- had written confirmation that we'll cover your medical condition
- paid any additional premium in full
If you're unsure what to declare or unable to find your condition on the medical conditions list, please call 0333 234 9913.
Please note, if you've tested positive for COVID-19 and been prescribed medication, received treatment, or had a consultation with a doctor or hospital specialist for any medical condition in the past two years, this must be declared on your policy.
Unfortunately, we can't offer cover for all medical conditions. If you have a serious health condition, we recommend using MoneyHelper's travel insurance directory or calling 0800 138 7777 (open Monday to Friday 8:00-18:00 excl. bank holidays).
Your questions answered
What if my medical conditions change after I've bought my policy?
If your policy can continue with the changes updated, you might need to pay an extra premium or we may vary your terms of cover such as applying a medical exclusion where appropriate.
Is there an upper age limit?
The maximum age limit for our policies is up to 90 years old for annual multi-trip policies, and up to 100 years old for single trip policies. The age limit and level of cover we offer depends on your information and details of your holiday.
