We've also put together the Holiday Extras' Travel Insurance Hub; your one-stop shop for everything you need to know about travel insurance.

What is Travel Insurance?

While no one wants to think about worst-case scenarios whilst on holiday, it is worth having a safety net in place should something go wrong down the line that could potentially leave you out of pocket. That's why it's important to have the best travel insurance for your own specific needs. Whether you need a single trip or annual travel insurance policy, or maybe you're setting sail and need cruise insurance, we have a wide array of comparable holiday insurance options for you to choose from.

Alongside our trusted, award-winning cover, Holiday Extras also offer travel insurance for your medical conditions. If you have a medical condition (or multiple conditions), our compassionate and understanding team will work with you to find you a policy that meets your requirements. We're also proud to say that our specialist medical cover meets the requirements for inclusion on the Money Helper travel insurance directory (MaPS).

Single trip and annual travel insurance policies available.

Our single trip travel insurance is a great option if you're looking for insurance for one holiday. A single trip policy will cover you for one trip up to 365 days.

If you're planning on taking more than one trip in a year, you may want to consider taking out an annual multi-trip travel insurance policy. This annual policy insures you for an unlimited number of trips throughout the 12 month policy period, given that each trip does not exceed 45 days, and could save you the money and the hassle of having to take out a brand new policy for each individual trip. Our annual trip insurance also covers you both abroad and for UK trips.

Medical travel insurance

With a Holiday Extras policy, you can get from 5 million to unlimited medical cover, should anything happen to you while abroad. If you currently have a pre-existing medical condition, or have previously had one, then you will need to declare your condition(s) via our confidential medical screening process.
