You are insuring yourself — not just your holiday!

We sometimes hear customers say that their travel insurance is more expensive than their holiday, but it’s very important to remember that you are insuring yourself, not just your holiday.

The main reason to buy travel insurance, whether you are over 65 or under, is to protect yourself against the risk of incurring large medical bills if you fall ill or have an accident whilst you are away.

Therefore the main influences on the cost of travel insurance are how likely you are to require emergency medical treatment whilst you are away and the cost of medical treatment in the country you are travelling to.

Emergency medical bills can quickly amount to thousands of pounds

As medicine advances with new technology and specialised drugs becoming more widely available, medical treatment is becoming more successful and more expensive.

Air ambulance back to the UK can cost between £35,000 - £45,000

Many of our customers are also interested in the repatriation section of our travel insurance because they want the peace of mind from knowing that they can be brought back the UK by air ambulance if it was medically necessary and will not end up being stranded in a hospital thousands of miles from their family and their home.

At Goodtogoinsurance.com we work hard to make sure that our customers are properly covered by their travel insurance when they travel abroad. This is why we have no age limits on our over 65 travel insurance and we can cover all types of pre-existing medical conditions which are declared to us.
