Everything you need to know about travel insurance, to help you find the right cover for your next holiday

 

Planning a trip isn’t always straightforward, but with our comprehensive guide to travel insurance you can skip the headache and find out exactly what you need from your insurer.

What is travel insurance?

Travel insurance covers you against any cost or losses if something should go wrong when you’re on holiday. Whether you’re travelling abroad or in the UK, travel insurance helps you if your plans are disrupted or your accommodation (Hotel Booking)gets cancelled, and is essential in the event that you injure yourself or your possessions are stolen, lost or damaged while travelling.

What types of travel insurance are there?

There are plenty of specialist types, but by and large when you buy travel insurance you choose one of three options:

         Single trip: This covers you for a single trip for as long as you’re away

         Annual multi-trip: This covers you for a full year, allowing you to take multiple holidays without rebuying insurance – as long as you go to the destination(s) declared

         Backpacking: This will cover you for an extended period to multiple destinations

 How much does travel insurance cost?

The cost of travel insurance changes according to lots of factors, such as where you’re going, how long you’re away for, your age and any extra cover that you require. A person in their 20s visiting France for a few days would expect to pay five or six pounds, but a retired couple on a round-the-world tour could pay 10 times that or more.

If you’re planning to take multiple holidays in a single year, annual travel insurance is the more economic option. On average, this type of policy is cheaper if you take three or more trips around the world – though prices differ according to whether you visit the USA, Canada or the Caribbean.
