Making a claim

It's everyone's worst nightmare: your luggage is lost on a connecting flight; you have to cancel your holiday last-minute because of an unfortunately-timed unforeseen circumstance; or you've had to go to the local hospital abroad to treat a suspiciously swollen ankle. No one wants any of these things to happen, but with the right travel insurance behind you these issues can seem like a thing of the past and we will do our best to provide you with compensation.

If you are in need of urgent medical attention while abroad, please contact TIFs 24-hour emergency assistance service immediately: +44 (0) 203 824 0653
