Can you get travel insurance if you are over 80?

Finding tailored travel insurance that covers you properly when you’re over 80 years old can feel difficult. But it really needn’t be.

We don’t think there should be an upper age limit on your happiness and travel plans. So, we help you to travel with peace of mind by having no upper age limit on our policies.

After all, you deserve to enjoy your holiday knowing that if the worst happens, you’re well supported.

The unexpected can happen on holiday more often than you might have realised, with 1 in 20 people claiming on their Annual Travel Insurance in 2018.**

From a medical emergency needing to be flown home by air ambulance, to lost luggage or a stolen passport, travelling without proper travel insurance isn’t worth the risk.

It’s always better to be safe than sorry.

Isn’t it worth doing right?

Should I declare my pre-existing medical conditions on my travel insurance?

Regardless of your age, having proper travel insurance in place is essential when going on holiday.

You can declare your medical condition through our online medical screening process, which is a straightforward set of questions for us to understand how your medical condition affects you. Or, if you prefer, you can complete the medical screening over the phone.

It’s important that all pre-existing conditions are declared on your policy. This will avoid large medical bills if you need treatment in another country. Failure to disclose any pre-existing medical conditions may affect the validity of your policy should you need to claim.
