Hi All
After some advice if anyone can help. I am going on a 4 month trip from UK for China, Japan, through Asia and the US.
I am struggling to find any providers that will even quote for this and the only one I have found has come out at over £3000.
If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great.
Thank you
Abbi
Hi and welcome to the online community
That sounds like a great trip but, as you have found, it can be more difficult to find travel insurance when you have had a cancer diagnosis.
I don't know whether you've looked through the Recommended Travel Insurance thread yet as it's where we try to keep recommendations from other forum members who have obtained travel insurance. Clicking on the link I've created will take you directly to it if you haven't seen it.
It is best to phone the travel companies rather than try and do online quotes. Make sure you have all the information to hand about your husband's diagnosis and treatment before contacting the insurers. This is a list of common questions that insurers might ask when you're applying for insurance.
Some insurers will ask for a letter from your doctor to prove that they have given you permission to travel. In any case it's always best to make sure that you have checked with your doctor that it's okay to travel and that this has been recorded in your notes in case of a claim.
I do hope that you can get travel insurance and that you have a great trip.
