We think everyone deserves a holiday, so our travel insurance has no upper age limit. Going away can be more difficult in later life with complications such as health conditions. We will consider any pre-existing medical condition, no matter your age. This means you’ll be covered for any emergency medical expenses. Plus you’ll be protected for cancellation, lost luggage and more. This means you can enjoy your travels, relaxed and worry-free.
If this were to happen while you were on holiday, you could rack up high bills if you don’t have a travel insurance policy. Some insurers have a limit, and they won’t cover anyone over a certain age. At InsureandGo, we think everyone should get to relax on holiday, so we have no upper age limit. Our policies provide cover for medical emergency expenses, cancellation and more, regardless of how old you are:
Cover if something gets in the way of your holiday: If you have to cancel your holiday for reasons outside of your control – such as a family emergency or bereavement – the last thing you want is to be out of pocket. Our cancellation cover could help
Travel for just as long as everyone else: Our single trip travel insurance lets you travel for up to 365 days. Meanwhile, the length of trip you can take on our annual policies varies depending on your level of cover. This ranges from 31 days on Budget policies to 55 days on Black policies. This is regardless of age, so you don’t miss out when buying no age limit travel insurance
Get over 100 activities included as standard: All of our policies include over 100 activities already. If you’re up to something a little different, we have a variety of add on cover. From golf to extreme sports

Unfortunately, you could be more likely to need medical assistance due to a fall or similar accident in later life. Buying a travel insurance policy which covers you for emergency medical expenses, cancellation and more, will mean you can get on with enjoying your trip!”

Frequently asked questions on seniors travel insurance
Is there usually an age limit for travel insurance?
Many travel insurers will have an age limit, where they will not insure anyone over a certain age. The age limit will vary and will be chosen by the insurance provider.
However, at InsureandGo our policies have no upper age limit.
Does travel insurance for older people cost more?
Unfortunately, travel insurance for older people does normally cost more. This is because the risk of you needing to claim, and for those claims to be costly, are higher. This is the case with all travel insurers, just like a young driver having to pay higher car insurance premiums.
It’s quick and easy to get a quote for travel insurance whatever your age. Do it now online, or by calling our team on 0808 169 6609.
