If youre under 70 its worth joining National Federation of Pensioners. They offer yearly travel insurance worldwide for just under 400 for a couple. No medical questions.

Well we are in our eighties so no hope there. We have stayed within the U.K. for the last few years.

I’ve been looking at taking out travel insurance, we were covered through our bank account but that was withdrawn when we reached 70.
Crikey, I never knew that! Thanks. (Best to pack in all the big trips quickly!)
I hope you find something sensibly priced.

You must take out travel insurance!
If you became ill in America the costs would be astronomical.

Any advice please? We are due to travel to America with family in September for a couple of weeks. We will both be over 70 when we fly. I’ve been looking at taking out travel insurance ( we were covered through our bank account but that was withdrawn when we reached 70 😳). I’ve been quoted over £1000 each trip only 😱😱. My husband is on Warfarin and has asthma. I have diverticula disease, kidney disease and controlled BP. Any help would be appreciated - I haven’t slept for worrying.
