    What is travel insurance (also known as holiday insurance)?

    Picture this: you’re 3 days into the trip of a lifetime when the unexpected crops up. A fall, a sudden illness or your luggage taking a detour across the globe. Without cover, you’ll be left to deal with the fallout alone, and abroad, that can get expensive fast.

     

    According to GOV.UK, a stomach bug treated in a US hospital can cost over £150,000. Could you foot that bill yourself? 

     

    That's where holiday insurance comes in. Tell us about your trip and any pre-existing medical conditions, choose your policy level, and if something unexpected happens before or during your travels, we'll step in to cover the cost — so you can keep dreaming big.

    Why do I need travel insurance if my EHIC or GHIC card covers me for medical expenses abroad?What our expert says…

    "<p>Your UK Global Health Insurance Card (<a href="https://www.staysure.co.uk/travel-insurance/resources/ghic-is-new-ehic/">GHIC</a>) will give you access to the same medical treatment as locals in most EU countries, so if you need to see a doctor or visit a hospital, you won&rsquo;t be turned away. But that&rsquo;s just the basics. It won&rsquo;t pay to fly you home if you&rsquo;re too unwell to travel &ndash; and that alone can cost tens of thousands. It won&rsquo;t cover a cancelled trip, lost baggage or travel delays, and outside of the EU, offers no protection at all. Travel insurance can fill these gaps.</p> "

    Can travel insurance cover war or conflict?What our expert says…

    "<p>Standard travel insurance doesn&rsquo;t cover <a href="https://www.staysure.co.uk/help/middle-east-conflict/">war or conflict</a>. However, our Travel Disruption Extension (included on our Signature policies or available as an add-on) can cover cancellations, curtailment and additional travel costs if war breaks out after you&rsquo;ve taken out your policy. Keep in mind that the situation must not already be happening or reasonably expected at the time of purchase, which is why it&#39;s best to buy your cover as soon as you&#39;ve booked your holiday.</p> "
