Yes. However, for children there are restrictions. Children under the age of 12 should always travel with an adult insured under the policy, or with a responsible adult. If travelling without an adult named on the policy, cover would need to be upgraded to the equivalent adult rate, and the appropriate additional premium would need to be paid. Children aged 12 and over can travel independently but would need to pay / upgrade to the equivalent adult rate. A child can be included under the policy at the appropriate child rate up to the age of 23 as long as they are in full time education at time of purchase. A child under the age of 23 who is not still in full time education can be covered under the policy but would need to pay the appropriate adult rate. Please call or email us to get a quote.
We are not able to provide cover under any section of the policy if you are travelling to a destination against the advice of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO). You can check this online at www.fco.gov.uk or by calling 0207 008 0232. We also cannot cover areas more than 150KM (93 Miles) from nearest habitation.
With this policy you would need to cover yourself from the date that you leave home to the date that you return to your home – not just for the dates that you will be doing an activity. You don’t need to add on extra days in case your flight is delayed though – if that happens through no fault of yours, you would be covered under the policy.
You can’t do this online. It must be taken out with a Sales Agent over the phone 01494 484800.
It would need to be agreed by us that those who had already left their country of residence at time of purchase will be covered.
Cover is only agreed on the understanding that nothing has occurred at time of purchase which is likely to result in a claim. There is a 24 hour deferment period from the date and time of purchase before the insurance cover commences.
