Student Travel Insurance

At Holidaysafe we understand that studying at College or University can be extremely stressful, which is why students should take full opportunity of their breaks to take holidays with friends/family and unwind.

Students have enough to worry about without finding cheap travel insurance to protect them during the trip. Our award-winning policies offer multiple levels of cover so you can choose travel insurance which suits your need and your budget.

Benefits of Holidaysafe’s Travel Insurance policies include:

• Featured on the Which? Best Rate tables ☆
• Cover starts from just £6.32¹
• European and Worldwide options available
• We offer automatic cover for over 100 sports and activities. We also offer an affordable winter sports extension for any skiing or snowboarding enthusiasts

• We aim to make our policy wordings as clear and concise as possible, ensuring you know what you’re covered for up-front

If you’re looking for cover for a longer trip up to 24 months in duration for a gap year or a backpacker adventure, visit our dedicated Gap Year Travel Insurance page for more information.

Our student travel insurance is ideal if you are:

• A student taking a gap year trip
• Studying abroad
• Taking a working holiday
• Volunteering abroad

Working abroad can be an amazing way to enhance your CV and stand out from the crowd. It allows you to experience various other cultures, test out places to live and careers, or simply use the money that you are earning to purchase your next plane ticket.

However, going abroad doesn’t have to be all about working or saving money. You could also simply go away and spend money experiencing new things by going interrailing around Europe or backpacking around Asia. To ensure that you and your trip are protected against any unexpected holiday disasters such as medical emergencies or lost possessions, it’s important to invest in quality travel insurance!
