Single Trip Travel Insurance

Our flexible Single Trip travel insurance range of policies offers cover for a one-off holiday, with a duration of up to three months. Rather than paying for year-round travel insurance, you only pay for the duration of your holiday, and you can tailor your policy to suit your individual needs.

Holidaysafe offers a range of cover from basic but essential levels of cover, to a more enhanced level of insurance, and all with competitive prices to match.

Cover Levels
Up to £7,500* Cancellation cover

This section of cover begins from the second you pay your premium when buying a single trip policy, and from the start date that you choose when purchasing a multi trip policy.  cancellation cover can step in to cover pre-paid costs, for things like accommodation, transport and car hire, that you cannot recover from any other source (e.g. your tour operator) in the event that you cannot go on your trip.  The section will cover cancellation for a number of reasons, but it is important that you read your policy wording for full details. (*Under our Premier Plus & Platinum Policies)

Up to £10,000,000* Medical Cover

Injury or illness are inconvenient at the best of times, but imagine needing emergency medical attention abroad – you may not be able to communicate with doctors, and will most likely have to pay for your treatment. This is where our medical expenses section can help you, as we will consider medical bills up to £10,000,000 on many policies, including the cost of getting you back to the UK if medically necessary. Furthermore, every Holidaysafe Policy comes with the access to our appointed  emergency assistance team, who are available to help you 24 hours a day, every day of the year (*Under our Premier, Premier Plus & Platinum Policies)

Up to £5,000* Personal Possessions Cover

Some of the most common and annoying holiday disasters involve personal possessions, such as lost, stolen, damaged or delayed baggage. These policy sections can step in to cover the costs of these disasters, but you must check the cover to ensure the policy limits are enough to cover the items you are taking abroad. (*Under our Platinum Policies)
