You’ve travelled from Katmandu to John o’ Groats. You’ve skydived, scuba dived, potholed and parachuted. Luxury travelled on the Orient Express and budget travelled on bikes and buses - and we’ve been proud to sort your Travel Insurance needs.

You told us you need Already Travelling Insurance and you’ve now got it.

So how have your Travel Insurance needs changed since the 1996? What are your top Travel Insurance choices?

The ‘90’s were all about that once a year, two week trip to Europe.

23 years later, in 2019, you’ve literally pushed the boundaries to the ends of the earth.

You now like to travel further; more often; and for longer. You also travel more the older you get. Who can blame you?

Travel destinations are now much more evenly split across Europe, Asia and the Americas. Locations that only the most intrepid of you dared venture in the ‘90’s are now firm favourites, including Cambodia, Vietnam, Peru.
