EXPENSIVE HOLIDAYS AND SUITABLE INSURANCE

I've been checking out insurance for my husband and I went onto one of the comparison sites and I saw cancellation cover at £10,000 would that be enough.

I think that it was a company callled Stay Sure which was advertising on ITV last night. They cover pre existing conditions and one is covered up to the age of 85 years. Obviously the small print was not availabale but the cost appeared to be reasonable. It may be worth exploring on line to see if there are any catches.

My DH and I travel a lot and also take lengthy holidays. We have found that its often a compromise between affordable bwith good cover and total cover, so go for good cover whilst away versus total cover of holiday costs. That's the bit that makes insurance expensive. Most insurance cover only goes to £5000 maximum cover for cost of holiday but give great cover once away.
I am in the middle of claiming for the very first time following a detached retina whilst on a world cruise.

Do you have a Nationwide account? They are giving free travel insurance to their account-holders so do contact your local branch and ask about their policy as regards cancellation. The cover ceases once you reach 75.

Go thru an insurance broker.
