None of us likes to think that our best-laid holiday plans might go awry, or about what happens if they do, but a comprehensive and reputable travel insurance policy is essential to your enjoyment and peace of mind while on holiday.
We have worked closely with Fogg Travel Insurance Services Limited (Fogg Travel), whose cover is among the most comprehensive available, to offer a personal holiday insurance policy specifically tailored to our type of holiday. In addition to emergency medical assistance, the policy provides cover for cancellation and travel disruption in many cases. If you are taking a walking or cycling holiday, it even covers you if you are unable to walk or cycle due to illness or injury. For skiing holidays, it provides wide-ranging winter cover, including downhill ski cover.
We consider adequate travel insurance to be essential (including for holidays to Ireland). If you decide not to purchase our insurance, we require you to provide us with details of your alternative policy (insurer, policy number and medical emergency telephone number) so that we can assist if the need arises while you are on holiday.
You should ensure that the insurance cover you purchase is at least equivalent to our policy and adequate for your particular needs. We will not accept liability for any damage, costs, losses or expenses which you incur as a result of your failure to do this; we do not check alternative insurance policies. If you do not inform us of your alternative arrangements, we will automatically add our insurance premium to your invoice. In this case, you must make sure our policy meets your needs, paying particular attention to existing health conditions and any planned activities, if different to those offered by us.

You will receive the full policy wording with your Booking Confirmation and Invoice. It is essential that you read your policy wording. As with most insurance policies, you are only insured for an event which occurs after you have purchased the cover. Please therefore carefully read the paragraph headed ‘pre-existing medical conditions’ below. As you would expect from Inntravel, in the unlikely event that this cover is not suitable for you, you may return it to us for a full refund, provided you return it within 14 days of receipt and you have not travelled or made a claim.
Pre-existing medical conditions
If you, or anyone who is travelling, has ever had treatment for any heart or circulatory condition, a stroke or high blood pressure, any breathing condition (including asthma), any type of cancer, any type of diabetes, any existing injury or other serious or re-occurring medical condition, any condition requiring long-term prescribed medication or if you are receiving or awaiting investigation for any medical condition you must advise the Referral Helpline as per the policy terms to see if additional cover is available. The cancellation and emergency medical cover may be reviewed if your health changes between booking and travel. Insurers reserve the right to impose terms. You will receive confirmation in writing of their decision. In most cases, cover is provided at no extra cost. If special terms are necessary, these will be explained to you and confirmed in writing.
