Insurance is a means of protection from a financial loss you might suffer if something unfortunate should happen. In travel insurance this loss could be as a result of a holiday cancellation, one of your party needing medical treatment whilst abroad, lost baggage or much, much more. Check the Fit2Travel Policy Wordings for a full list of what is covered.
Single Trip travel insurance is specific to just one holiday, and is aimed at those who travel once or twice a year.
The benefits for a Single Trip are mostly the same as an Annual Multi-Trip travel insurance policy, except with a Single Trip you're covered for cancellation as soon as the policy is purchased. The dates on the policy are then indicative of when you'll be on holiday.
An Annual Multi-Trip travel insurance policy is suited for those who tend to travel a lot throughout the course of a year. Cover for all of your potential holidays are grouped under one policy, and you can travel as many times as you like in the 12-month period on your Policy Certificate.
Unlike a Single Trip policy, you do not input the dates you'll be travelling - instead, you select the date you'd like your policy to begin, and you're covered from that date.
Our policies are aimed at travellers with pre-existing medical conditions:
Gone are the days of having to call in and explain your medical conditions, only to be told "no". At Fit2Travel you simply complete the questions asked relating to your questions and you'll know immediately whether we can cover you.
The chances of getting an injury increase massively when you take part in a winter sports activity, which is why we offer a Winter Sports extension. Cover for the following activities (and more!) are covered:
This covers the additional risks of taking part in the activity, as well as your ski equipment (owned or hired), ski pack, piste closure, and avalanche closure. Check our Policy Wording to see the full terms and conditions of what's covered.
We cover a number of sports and activities as standard, full details of which can be found in your Policy Wording.
For all other activities, please call our friendly customer services team on 0330 880 1791 and they’ll be able to help you work out which activities can be included.
Please be aware that sports and activities which are not covered as standard are likely to incur additional charges.
Cancelling your policy with Fit2Travel is easy. Contact us by phone or email, and our UK-based customer contact centre can arrange this for you.
You have a 14-day cooling off period, starting on the day you purchase your travel insurance. Should you find that the terms and conditions of the policy do not meet your requirements, you can contact Fit2Travel within those 14 days for a full refund to be considered.
If you cancel within the 14-day cooling off period:
Provided you have not travelled, claimed, or intend to claim on your policy, you are eligible for a full refund of your policy premium.
If you cancel outside of the 14-day cooling off period:
You would not receive a refund if you cancel your policy outside of the 14-day cooling off period, whether or not you have travelled or claimed.

One of the most important aspects of a travel insurance policy is the emergency medical cover. Our policies are designed to cover you for up to £10,000,000 when it comes to needing medical assistance while abroad.
It's crucial to declare all your pre-existing medical conditions in order for your travel insurance to be valid. Make sure you are honest and thorough when completing the medical declaration, so that you can get the help you need while on holiday. By declaring your pre-existing medical condition, you're covered for an unexpected medical emergency in relation to it.
You can contact the Emergency Medical Service 24/7, on +44 (0) 1733 224 357. We would suggest adding this number to your phone before you travel, so that you have easy access in the event of a medical emergency.
The Emergency Assistance Service has the medical expertise, contacts and facilities to help you if you are injured in an accident or become ill. They will also arrange to transport you home if this is considered to be medically necessary.
If you are admitted to a hospital or clinic while abroad, our Emergency Assistance Service will arrange for medical expenses to be paid directly to the hospital or clinic. You (or someone on your behalf) must contact them as soon as possible.
If you cannot contact the Emergency Assistance Service at the time we specify (because you need immediate emergency treatment), you must contact them as soon as you can.
The EHIC (European Health Insurance Card) has been replaced by the GHIC (Global Health Insurance Card), since the UK left the EU. It lets you get necessary state healthcare in EU countries, and some other countries, on the same basis as a resident of that country. This means the cost of treatment is equivalent to that which a local resident would pay, or in some cases it could be free.
You should read about the GHIC on the NHS website before travelling. Click here for more information: Healthcare Cover Abroad | NHS
One of the major aspects of travel insurance is the cover for holiday cancellation. This protects you against your trip being cancelled or cut short, and reimburses you for funds you have paid (or agreed to pay) due to unexpected cancellation. Our policies cover you for up to £3,000, which is applicable per person named as a traveller on your Policy Certificate.
For more information, and to see the coverable events, please check the Policy Wording.
Personal liability is cover for financial losses you experience if you cause damage or injury to another person or their property. This is particularly useful to skiers or snowboarders, due to the likelihood of colliding with someone on the slopes.
Losing your passport or travel documents while you're on holiday is an extremely stressful experience. And then there's the hassle of arranging replacements, potential travel delay, and the additional costs associated with those things.
The expense of temporary documents and additional accommodation or travel arrangements can be covered under your Fit2Travel policy - check the Policy Wording for details.
Gadget insurance is available to add to your policy at an additional premium. Should you choose to purchase this, the Gadget Policy Wording will be emailed to you at the same time you receive your travel insurance documents.
Be aware that should you need to make a claim with your gadget insurance provider, you can start the process here:

Travelling with your family brings its own additional problems, especially when the kids are excited and running around like uncaged animals, overdosed on sugar and sunshine. As a parent, the last thing you want is to be landed with a medical issue which not only spoils their fun, but causes you a lot of stress.
Fit2Travel have an Emergency Assistance Service, which is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to assist with medical emergencies and financial help.
If you're travelling within the UK, it's unlikely that you've considered purchasing travel insurance. Although you don't need cover for emergency medical expenses (thank you NHS!), you can still find yourself at risk of a financial loss.
Consider cancellation, lost baggage, curtailment, and personal liability cover when it comes to a trip in your home country.
Of course you can! Provided you've not left the United Kingdom, you can purchase a policy at any point before you leave.
As soon as your Policy Reference number is issued, your policy covers you. Be aware that any potential claims you were aware of before purchase would not be covered.
