It has been reported in the UK press that travel insurance for over 75s is becoming more and more expensive. Age Concern UK has expressed alarm at some of the cripplingly high costs for travel insurance for the over 65 age group.
A 77 year old woman from Blackpool tried to get travel insurance from her house contents insurer for a week in Hungary and was quoted a ridiculous £200. This was almost as much as her holiday cost.
There are cheaper deals to be found on the Internet but many people over the age of 70 do not have Internet access or are too afraid to purchase travel insurance online.
The best advice is to start searching for travel insurance as early as possible and never leave it to the last minute. Even if you do find a quote online there is nothing stopping you ringing up the company and purchasing this way.
Many travel insurers though will give you a discount online.
