Travel Insurance For Over 60s

Planning your next adventure? Your 60s and beyond are the perfect time to see more of the world.

Some providers either set strict upper age limits or require specialist "over 60s" policies, which can make finding cover more difficult once you hit a certain age.

That's why we offer flexible options for those searching for the best travel insurance for over 60s and 65s. You don't need a separate "over 60s" policy because our standard travel insurance already includes older travellers.

Over 60s couple travel break – smiling friends on a countryside walk with backpacks, perfect for senior holidays and insurance cover.

Do senior policies have an upper age limit?

At Holiday Extras, we know adventure doesn't stop at 60, and neither does our cover. That's why our Single Trip travel insurance has no upper age limit.

  • Single Trip policy – No upper age limit, so you can travel with confidence at any age.
  • Annual policy – Cover available up to the age of 85.

Age limits may vary depending on the policy you choose and the activities you want to include.

What is classed as a pre-existing medical condition?

A pre-existing medical condition is defined as an illness, injury or condition that exists before, or at the time, you take out an insurance policy. Even if some conditions have resolved, or you feel well, we may still need to assess them. This is so that we can provide you with the right level of cover.

What's included when you insure your holiday with us

If you're travelling in your 60s or beyond, the right travel insurance (including insurance for over 65s) helps you enjoy your trip knowing you're supported if the unexpected happens.


  • Emergency Medical Cover - If you fall ill or are injured, you can focus on your recovery, secure in the knowledge that we'll cover your medical expenses.

  • Trip Cancellation and Curtailment - Having to cancel or cut short your holiday is never nice, let alone the sting of a financial loss. With our cover, you can be rest assured that cancellation cover is in place should you unexpectantly fall ill. When your cancellation cover begins will be dependent on the policy type you choose.

  • Personal Possession Cover - Personal possessions cover protects your belongings against loss, theft or damage, so the items that matter the most to you can be replaced or reimbursed.

Cover is subject to the terms and conditions of your policy and the authorisation of the emergency assistance team.
