Annual Travel Insurance Cover

Annual Travel Insurance online for UK residents

It doesn't matter where in the world you want to go, you just want to pick up and go there. Or, maybe your boss is the kind that has you at 40,000 feet at a moment's notice. Either way, you need continuous travel cover, and you need to take it a year at a time. Well, we can surely help there. Click here to book now.

Once you've got your quotation, added any extras you think prudent, and then paid the bill, you don't need to think about it again. Never again, that is, until you need it to work, and then it kicks in and works as specified. It's a good feeling having solid, affordable insurance when you need to travel the world continuously. And every experienced traveller can recount some tale of the time their insurance made the difference between disaster and a simple unpleasant experience.

Oh, and if you are thinking "it won't happen to me", then the next time you get out at some distant destination, all picturesque palm trees, and white beaches, instead of going to the hotel straight away, ask the driver to take a detour via the local public hospital. Go for a walk around. Then have another think about your insurance cover, and how important it is, and how little it really costs . . . and how much you don't want to end up in that hospital, should you need emergency treatment.

UK cover Worldwide. How do you know the right quote for the annual policy you need?

At the top right of this page there is a quotation button. Start with a low quote, really basic, and then check the policy conditions. See what you get for your money. Then add an item or two, extend things a little and try again. You'll find that for a couple travelling continuously, a mere £70 will give you good, solid basic cover.

Of course everyone is different, but a blanket annual cover will take in anything anyone wants to do and it would cost very little more than the basic premium. So, click on the blue panel, try a few quotes, then take out the insurance that suits you. Be sure to understand the very plain and simple instructions. These will also tell you the steps you need to take to protect your insurance claim rights.

Useful links for frequent travellers

If you spend a lot of your time in aeroplanes you are subject to health risks lesser mortals do not suffer. There is a great deal of information out there to help maintain health and vitality, while living in a non time zone world at 40,000 feet. Here are some small tips that can get you landed at your destination, in better shape than otherwise:

• Drink water. Cabin air is dry. Flying dehydrates your body. When the flight attendants roll the beverage cart down the aisle, order bottled water. Avoid coffee, alcohol or soft drinks. Fruit juice is fine. Put a water-soaked washcloth over your face when you sleep on long overseas flights.
• Keep moving. Get up, stretch and walk to the loo, even if you don’t need to use it, at least once in an hour. Do some exercises in your seat. Try not to cross your legs at the knees. Above all, keep your seatbelt fastened when you’re in your seat.
• Swallow or drink water to keep your ear canals clear, especially during takeoff and landing when the cabin pressure is changing. Talk to your doctor about taking a decongestant before your flight if you have a cold or sinus infection. Babies will clear their ears if they are given a bottle during pressure changes.
• Carry your medications with you. And be prepared for not getting your luggage back immediately. That's why it is so much better to carry the medicines you need that day and the next as well.
Wear loose, comfortable clothing in layers. Your body temperature changes; cabin comfort fluctuates. Even loosen your shoelaces.
• Relax. Grab one of those small pillows from the overhead bins. Stuff the pillow behind you for lower back support. Some of the newer planes have lumbar supports built into the seats.
