I am due to go on holiday on the 24th September but I can't seem to get anyone to quote me a reasonable price. I have been given a terminal diagnosis but I am fit and well enough to travel. Has anyone else had this problem or can you recommend where to go. The lowest I have been quoted is £1400 for myself and my husband to go
Hi Hazel and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
Unfortunately, it can be more difficult to find reasonably priced travel insurance when a cancer diagnosis is involved so please join us over in the travel insurance group for cancer patients to see the recommendations from others who have been successful.
To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, have a look through the threads there called 'Recommended Travel Insurance' and Recommended travel insurance 2023-24', which you'll find on the first page. They are full of recommendations from other cancer patients who have got travel insurance.
I hope you're able to find some affordable insurance so that you can book your holiday.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
