Purchase Insurance - Edinburgh Airport ...

 
Before purchasing your travel insurance make sure you know everything you need to about your trip, and also any existing cover.
 
Shop Around
 
Always shop around for the best cover at the best price. Try, for instance the Post Office, your bank or building society, supermarkets and travel agents, or contact the companies we have listed below.
 
Consider What You Need
 
Give thought to the type of insurance you require.

This also includes, for example, life insurance if your family is dependant on your earnings.

if you are going to be participating in Winter sports such as skiing or snowboarding or water sports like jet skis make sure you have the right policy or you'll find you won't be covered.

Where are you travelling to? Don't buy Worldwide cover if you're just going to Europe, and likewise think about annual cover that can be cheaper if going away several times, rather than a single trip policy each time you travel.
 
At Risk Countries
 
If you are travelling to a Country that you believe could now be unstable look on the Foreign and Commonwealth Office website first - click here.

If you're going somewhere very remote, or third World, check your policy covers for repatriation costs for your to get medical help if you are seriously injured or taken ill whilst abroad.
 
Cover You Already Have
 
Check you don't already have travel insurance.

For example, many household insurance policies offer complimentary cover, or cover your contents taken away with you.

Check also any credit cards you have as they sometimes offer travel insurance too.

However, always check carefully the level of cover these policies are offering as often they are quite basic and you might need or want to upgrade.
 
Making A Claim
 
Before taking out a travel insurance policy check the insurer offers a 24 hour telephone help line in case you need to make a claim whilst you are away - a lost passport for instance.

And always travel with your travel insurance schedule which will have the contact numbers and your policy contract details on so you can claim.
