Policy Information

Coronavirus Travel Insurance

Lockdown? We’re over it. Bring back the dodgy holiday tummy. Bring back falling asleep on the beach and forgetting the suncream. Bring back the endless queues at the airport. We’d put up with anything just to be heading on holiday again.

Switch on holiday mode. We’re ready for long departure queues. We’re ready for the sunburn. We’re ready for the incessant ‘are we there yet?’ questions. We’re ready for all the little inconveniences for the privilege of experiencing a holiday abroad again. It’s happening.

Picture this: the plane doors opening and that pang of heat hitting your skin. Arriving at the hotel and the swimsuit going straight on. Drink in hand, snacks at your side and sunglasses on. We call that Heaven on earth.

Now you don’t want anything to get in the way of a good time, not even Covid-19. And how are you going to protect yourself and your trip against the pandemic? You’re going to get quality Coronavirus travel insurance cover – hey, why not try ours? We offer Coronavirus cover on all single and multi-trip policies (more info below).
