Seniors - who do we cover?

We offer competitively-priced travel insurance for people aged 60 years or over1. Our range of domestic and international insurance policies are there to protect you and your holiday.

And we don't just cover short getaways. For those thinking of embarking on the adventure of a lifetime we also offer annual insurance policies, which provide great value for those no longer limited by four-week holiday leave.

Don't let existing medical conditions stop you exploring

Having an existing medical condition2 shouldn't stop you from living out your travel dreams. That's why we cover many existing medical conditions automatically, such as:

Hip / knee replacement
Cataracts / Glaucoma
Diabetes
Gastric reflux
Epilepsy
Hypertension (high blood pressure)3

If your existing medical condition falls outside the criteria under Conditions We Automatically Cover, we may still be able to cover you for an additional premium, subject to the outcome of a short medical assessment. Complete a medical assessment online at the same time as getting your quote or contact us to find out more.
