If you’re planning a holiday with friends, or a family trip away, it might be easier to get your travel insurance under a group policy. After all, not being properly insured could mean paying unnecessary fees if you suffer travel delays, lost luggage or a medical emergency.
Although there’s more people to look out for one another when travelling as a group, there’s also more people at risk. Having proper group travel insurance is important and can give you peace of mind that help is there if the worst happens.
Having a group policy would make sure that if a travelling companion has a medical emergency that causes a cancellation of your trip, you would be covered too.
We understand that travelling with multiple people can mean more organising and hassle, but with a group policy we make it that bit easier. You’ll get the same quality travel insurance as a single policy, all while making sure everyone is covered properly.
It’s important to keep up-to-date with travel advice before booking your trip and taking out holiday insurance.

A family policy only applies when there are two adults and children under the age of 18 travelling who live at the same address.
