Time to dip your toes back in the water? When you’re ready to book your next holiday abroad, we’ve got you covered with award-winning travel insurance with Covid cover.
All new single trip and annual travel insurance policies with us include COVID-19 cover at no extra cost. We’ll even cover any pre-existing medical conditions you may have. So, if the FCDO says it’s safe to travel to your destination, you can enjoy your holiday with peace of mind.
You can also get a discount of 10% on COVID-19 test packages with our travel insurance policies.
Cancellation cover protects you:
If you get COVID-19 and need help, you can be covered as long as you’ve declared your pre-existing medical conditions.
Our enhanced COVID-19 cancellation cover (above) applies to all new policies bought from 29 April 2021, as long as you’ve had your recommended COVID-19 vaccinations.
If you bought your policy before 29 April 2021, please check your policy document to see what COVID-19 cover is included.
If you need to, you can change your single trip policy start date as long as it falls within 18 months from the date you bought your policy, or 24 months if you bought your policy from 29 April 2021, subject to age and medical acceptance†. (There may be a charge for changes to your policy.)

To be covered, you need to have received all doses of the COVID vaccine that you’ve been offered, including any booster jabs.
You can also be covered if you can’t have the vaccine due to a medical exemption.
If you have refused any doses of the COVID vaccine or any booster jab, then you won’t be covered for COVID related claims.
If your destination is safe to travel to, your trip should be covered by UK travel insurance as long as you have pre-booked and paid for at least two consecutive nights of accommodation.
While you can’t yet declare COVID-19 as a pre-existing condition, it’s important to let us know about any other pre-existing medical conditions you may have. Don’t worry, you can still be covered for cancellation and medical expenses if you develop coronavirus at home or abroad.
You can declare your conditions through our online medical screening process, which is a straightforward set of questions for us to understand how your medical conditions affect you. Or, you can complete the medical screening over the phone.
Covering your conditions will help you to avoid large medical bills if you need treatment abroad - including treatment for COVID-19. Failure to declare any pre-existing medical conditions may affect the validity of your policy if you need to claim.
You should be covered to visit most destinations across the globe, as long as the country you’ve chosen is safe to visit.
To check your destination is safe to visit, take a look at the FCDO’s travel advice. The FCDO’s advice may change, so make sure you check it’s safe to travel before you set off.
If the FCDO, World Health Organisation or local authorities have advised against all or all but essential travel to your destination, it wouldn’t be safe for you to travel.
If you travelled against the FCDO’s advice, your policy would become invalid and wouldn’t cover you if you needed to claim. Even if advice changes while you’re on holiday, you won’t be covered if your destination was listed as unsafe when you travelled.
Whenever you need us, our 24/7 claims team is here for you.
