"Couples' travel insurance can often be cheaper comapred to buying individual policies. But if one of you has a pre-existing medical condition, it might be a different story. It's always a good idea to compare quotes to see what's best for you both."
- Medical treatment: Anyone listed on your policy will be covered for emergency medical treatment while you're on your trip.
- Cancellation cover: Provides cover for your flights or accommodation if you need to cancel your holiday unexpectedly.
- Theft, accidental damage, or loss: If your personal possessions or baggage go missing or are damaged while you're on holiday. Note that in most cases the maximum amount is shared between both travellers. So, for £1000 cover, you might only get £500 each.
- Emergency repatriation: If you or anyone listed on your policy falls ill or is seriously injured during your trip and needs to return home.
- Travel disruption: If you're unable to make your onward travel plans because of bad weather, strikes, or mechanical issues.
