What is an online single trip travel policy?
There are so many things to remember before you go on holiday, and if you only go away once a year, there is a chance you will have forgotten something from the year before. As well as the basics like sun cream, mosquito repellents and booking your car hire, you will also need to sort out your currency and make sure that your family’s EHIC (European Health Insurance Cards) are up to date if you are travelling in Europe.
One thing that you should never forget is your travel insurance, and that is because it should be the top of every holiday packing list, and the first thing anyone sorts out. There are several different sorts of travel insurance, and some will suit customers who go away several times a year, while others will suit customers you go on just one trip abroad in a year.
An online single trip travel policy has been designed for those customers who go on just the one holiday abroad a year, and the majority of families in Briton fall into this category. The policy has been designed to be easy to take out and manage, and can be booker, paid for and accessed online. You can print your documents before you go, and even access them online from anywhere in the world if your luggage or the documents go missing while you are away.
What does an online single trip travel policy cover me for?
Your online single trip travel policy will provide you and the people it covers with travel insurance for the dates of your trip. You will be covered against a variety of different potential outcomes, with health insurance being the most important part of the policy.
While here in the UK we are used to having the NHS, a world class health service on our doorstep, free of charge, when you venture abroad the health services are all different, and many charge even residents of their country for all of their services. Your online single trip travel policy will pay any medical bills you incur as a result of falling ill or getting injured abroad, and with an operation on a broken bone costing as much as £10,000 in some countries, can you afford to be without travel insurance.
Your online single trip travel policy will also provide you with insurance against the loss and theft of your luggage and belongings, and will also cover your flights and accommodation.
