Do I need travel insurance when travelling by Eurotunnel?

Holiday insurance is important however you get to mainland Europe. Even if it’s just a day trip to Calais, channel hopping can invite the same mishaps as a longer trip.

 

Cross-channel travel insurance can cover you for medical emergencies, delayed travel, lost passports and more.

 

There’s no upper age limit, and you can get cover for most pre-existing medical conditions.

 

You get to relax and explore with peace of mind. And we’ll be there to help if your holiday does hit a bump.

 

Can I rely on my GHIC or EHIC?

You should take your GHIC or valid EHIC when travelling to Europe, but they’re not the same as having proper travel insurance for Europe.

 

These schemes mean you can get emergency medical care for free or at reduced cost in Europe (excluding Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Switzerland).

 

But you can’t rely on them for anything else. They won’t cover cancelled trips, stolen baggage or getting you home in an emergency.

 

Get a quote for tailored travel insurance that lets you visit Europe with confidence.
