Travel insurance

Hi Alibob1 and a very warm welcome to the online community

I don't know if you've had chance to look through the 'recommended travel insurance' thread yet, as it's where the majority of recommendations from other forum members are. If not, clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there.

It is best to phone the insurance companies rather than try and do online quotes as often at the end of the online quote it will tell you to phone the company and you'll then have to go through all the information again. Also sometimes the broker can refer to the underwriters to see if they would provide cover when an online quote might just give you a straight refusal. 

Make sure that you have all the information to hand about your diagnosis and treatment before contacting the insurers. This is a list of things an insurance provider might want to know when you're applying for insurance. Some providers might ask for a letter from your doctor saying that you are well enough to travel. This could come from your cancer team or GP.

Let us know how you get on

Hi Alibob1

I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling to find insurance for your husband.

I can't recommend any specific insurer, as I had a different type of cancer, but the link I gave you will give you lots of suggestions.

I do hope you can get insurance so that you can book a holiday.
