Senior Travel Insurance

Senior Travel Insurance - essential cover at any time

It's official - 65 is the new 45. Despite this, many insurance organisations feel the need to charge higher premiums for senior travellers. Not us though.

Sometimes, it's the simple things we forget that can create the biggest problems. Here's some tips to keep you in good health for your holiday.

• Spread the weight of your belongings over several bags and use cases with wheels.
• Take time for the occasional walk up and down the cabin to keep circulation moving.
• Excessive alcohol can cause all sorts of injury and illness directly and indirectly.
• Drink lots of water or watery soft drinks on the flight (and when out in the sun).
• Carry details of medical conditions and medicines where they can be easily found.

Pre-travel health checks

Research the standard of medical care at your arrival destination as this may have an influence on the travel insurance cover you choose.

It's also good practise for anyone planning a journey to see their doctor in good time before the trip, that way any minor conditions can be treated and any prescribed medication can be made available in good time. Doctors will also offer advice on any vaccinations that may be applicable for your destination.

Planning the journey of a life time

Planning a journey well in advance can take a lot of worry out of your holiday, especially if mobility is difficult. Here are some of our top travel tips to help you plan in advance and get the most out of your journey.

• Check out the location and features of the hotel.
  If mobility is difficult, it's always a good idea to check out the location of your hotel in relation to local attractions and the city or town center. Also ask if it's possible to arrange a room that's closer to reception and the hotel restaurant.
• Driving to the airport?
  No matter which UK airport you're flying from, chances are that there are a range of on-airport parking options so that you're never more than a few minutes from the terminal.
• Avoid an early morning drive to the airport.
  Book an overnight stay at an airport hotel and avoid the early morning rush to the airport. It's always nicer to start your holiday refreshed and wide awake.
• Look out for the special offers and discounts.
  Being 65 or over has its benefits as many companies and organisations offer discounts to pensioners. From travel adaptors to money saving vouchers, shop around and you'll be surprised how much money you can save, starting right here with 10% off our Senior Travel Insurance.
