Hi a holiday sounds amazing but as you may experience getting affordable Travel Insurance can be a challenge and at times the price quoted could be higher than the cost of the holiday and some people do find that no Insurance is being offered.
I have lived with and been treated for 2 types of Lymphoma's on and off for 26 years and personally had to be 2 years in remission and not on any cancer related treatments before I could get any price (and that was with my consultant saying I was clear to fly a good 18 months before) but these decisions are often all down to cancer types, treatment, prognosis and the resulting risk factor put on by the insurers risk assessment.
Comparison sites tend to use the same algorithms so getting a clear price can be difficult and it’s not that unusual to be turned down or told to call the insurers.
It is actually more effective to do a general online search then call a few insurers directly as this means that you have answered all the questions correctly and in doing this a suitable policy can be offered and price given.
My latest insurance was through PayingTooMuch, the price was ok but I can’t comment about hoe good they would be in the event if a claim as we did not need to do this.
