yes. most holiday insurance policies will cover emergency medical treatment and, where necessary, repatriation cover to bring you back to the UK if it is medically deemed necessary. however, it’s important that you let us know about any existing medical conditions you have, or are under review for, during the quote process to make sure full medical protection is in place for your adventure. the reason being, if you don’t let us know about any existing or new health conditions and you later need emergency medical treatment as a result of the condition, then you may not be covered for any related costs.

letting us know about a medical condition is really easy. just answer a few questions about your health during the quote process and we’ll do our very best to match you with one of our brands that will cover your conditions and meet your holiday needs.

most standard sports and activities will be covered by our brands as standard. however, if your trip-of-a-lifetime involves you trying out some new and exciting sports, such as bungee jumping or skydiving in Australia, sand duning in Dubai or shark diving off South Africa, then you’ll probably need an specialist extreme sports policy, or at the very least, a sports extension so that you are fully covered. but that’s pretty easy to arrange – just let us know what activities you plan on getting involved with during your trip during the quote process and we’ll make sure we match you with on of our brands that will meet your needs.
