As of 28 October 2020, the FCDO added the Canary Islands to their exempt list. They still advise against all non-essential travel to all of mainland Spain and the Balearic Islands.
When you’re off to Tenerife, travel insurance should be packed in your suitcase with confidence. After all, things can go wrong on holiday more often than you might realise.
These problems can vary from flight delays or lost luggage, to a medical emergency needing urgent treatment abroad.
It’s always important that you check the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office’s travel advice before buying your travel insurance and before you go on holiday. The FCDO lists Tenerife as Spain for their travel advice.
With travel advice changing so quickly, it’s important you keep up-to-date with travel advice.
Before you travel, you’ll need to know:
We want you to have a safe and relaxing holiday. If you travel against government advice and don’t have the European FCDO Travel Advice Extension, you won’t be covered if you need 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.
