Where to Buy Travel Insurance?

Buying travel insurance is much easier these days than it was in the past. It sometimes seems like everyone is selling insurance for people travelling abroad and you can now buy travel insurance from supermarkets, banks, the post office, travel agents, tour operators, general insurance brokers and of course from specialist travel insurers.

Broadly speaking, all travel insurance is the same. The cover varies from one insurance company to the next and so do the exclusions, but the principals of the travel insurance cover are nearly always the same.

Two things that do vary greatly are the price and the advice you’ll receive. Would you buy your groceries from a travel agent or your underwear from a pet shop? The answer is almost definitely no, so why buy travel insurance from anyone apart from a travel insurance company who specialises in arranging holiday insurance and nothing else?
