TRAVEL INSURANCE FIR OLDIES

[Jubilado Tim]

Having now reached 75 I am shocked to see how much my travel insurance has risen. Can anyone out there recommend the cheapest travel insurance for oldies?

Good, I am getting close to my current travel insurance's 'ageist' restrictions.

Many thanks Welsh Gas for your reply. In the end I got a good deal on personal travel insurance from Avanti, I would recommend them.

That's perhaps a tad optimistic. I for one don't think there will be sadly.

The other club does have an offering though...

Red Pennant had really good reviews from people who had used the service. I have used Saga before and have annual travel and medical insurance from the BMC which covers more activities than many insurers.
As you get older it seems to be a bit of a minefield.
I have had to use european road cover on a number of occasions, unfortunately and have mixed experience.

That's not filling me with confidence!

Mind you I've just removed most of this comment because I just saw elsewhere that the CAMC has partnered with Green Flag for European cover.

Haven't looked into the details but good news if it's accurate.
