Travel insurance for over 50s

• 28% of our customers who bought travel insurance in 2014 were over 50, so it could be useful no matter your age!
• The Foreign office claims that 1 in 10 over 55's don't always take out travel insurance when going away
• Compare various rates and levels of cover so your travels are as worry-free as possible

• Medical treatment and repatriation back to the UK if you are unwell or get injured whilst on holiday
• Holiday cancellations cover could come in handy if you are forced to cancel your trip
• Baggage, personal possessions and money cover could also help you out if your items are stolen or accidentally lost
• Most policies provide a 24 hour helpline for use in an emergency

• Declare any pre-existing medical conditions that you or your travel party may have (or may have developed during the term of your policy)
• It’s strongly recommended to get your travel insurance in advance as you might not fully benefit from cancellation cover (In 2012, 16% of people bought travel insurance through Confused.com the day before travelling, meaning that they could have potentially missed out on cover for cancellations).
• If you’re going on a family holiday, it’s worth noting that family policies are limited for up to 2 adults and 8 children who should be under the age of 18.
