It can be, but it all depends on the kind of travel you’ll be doing. Consumer champion, Which? found that, if you’re going on three holidays, each of one week or more, an annual policy will be cheaper every time. According to the British Insurance Brokers Association (BIBA), this is based on how insurers calculate risk.
But it’s worth considering where you’ll be going, and what you plan to be doing when you get there. For example, if you’re travelling to Europe three times but also have a holiday to the US planned, it could be cheaper to buy an annual European policy, then arrange a separate Single Trip policy for your visit to the States.
Single Trip Insurance offers further benefits too. You can tailor each Single Trip policy to the type of holiday you’re taking, which offers you greater flexibility. For example, if you’re planning a one-off trip with extended family, Group Travel Insurance can cover between 2 and 10 travellers, and you don’t even need to be related, or live at the same address.
The full benefits of your Single Trip Insurance will begin on the travel dates you have selected. But if you’ve opted for cancellation cover to be included, this starts as soon as you buy your policy. For this reason, it’s ideal to buy your Travel Insurance as soon as you book.
How early? Take a tip from money-saving expert Martin Lewis. “If you have booked your holiday, but don’t have Travel Insurance, do it tonight. Otherwise, you’re running a risk. Don’t leave it; that’s pointless.”
Issues may seem unlikely when you’re booking your dream getaway, but any number of events, such as illness or injury, could lead to cancelled plans. If you don’t have the right Travel Insurance, you could lose the money you’ve paid for a trip you don’t take.
Single Trip Travel Insurance from AllClear includes cancellation cover, but you can decide to exclude this option. It’s worth remembering that cancellation claims are extremely common.
In fact, over the past five years, the most common reasons for travel insurance claims among Brits have been trip cancellation and lost belongings, which have accounted for 35% and 31% of claims respectively.
You can buy your Single Trip Travel Insurance up to 12 months before your holiday. If you have included cancellation cover, the cover begins as soon as you buy your policy.
The cost of a Single Trip Travel Insurance policy will vary from person to person. The premium is based on trip duration, destination, age and medical conditions.
If you’re travelling within Europe, applying for a GHIC card is a sensible idea. GHIC stands for Global Health Insurance Card. If you need medical treatment in the EU, it could save you money. That’s because using it can remove the excess for medical claims on your Travel Insurance.
You can use a GHIC card in any EU country, plus Montenegro, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Switzerland.
But while a GHIC card offers valuable healthcare cover in Europe, it has its limitations. In fact, a GHIC card and Single Trip Travel Insurance serve different purposes. While the GHIC card helps with state-provided healthcare within the EU, Single Trip Travel Insurance offers a wider range of cover for unexpected events on your travels.
