Hi everyone,
I am new here, and posting on behalf of my husband. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer, he's taking Abiraterone, and will have radiotherapy. We have a holiday to Italy booked for dates 08/06/2026 to 22/06/2026. The day after our return home 23/06/2026 his radiotherapy starts. When trying to find holiday insurance we are come up against stumbling blocks mainly because of his forthcoming radiotherapy. Can anyone please advise which insurance companies are the most user friendly for prostate cancer? Thank you in advance for any help od advice you are able to offer.
Hello 22libby,
I'd suggest you try Albert & Eddie, a comparison site owned by the same company that owns Insurancewith and Holiday Safe amongst others. They came up with the goods for me and a few others.
There's also a travel insurance forum on here and you could take a look there, although there's not a lot of activity on it.
I hope you can get sorted, let us know if you can.

Hello 22libby
I would like to echo Derek’s comments above.
I have had travel Insurance all through my personal journey. It’s joint worldwide with my wife who has some issues (medical ones!!).
Before radiotherapy I paid almost £2k a year. Directly after radiotherapy it dropped to £780.
I do hope you get sorted. .
Best wishes - Brian.
