Hi. I'm new to this forum. My husband has metastasized prostate cancer and facing another round of chemo sadly.
We would love to have a last very special holiday to the South Pacific. But we can't find any reasonably priced travel insurance... if we find it at all !! It's practically impossible. Can anyone help with a decent helpful company that we could get him covered for 1 last trip.
TIA
Thankyou thats very helpful ill give them a try
Hello Dereks wifeb9010f
We have a special forum for travel insurance and here's the link:
Travel insurance forum for cancer patients
I am on a 5 week holiday in Turkey at the moment . I use insurance-with. I never fill in the online form as they all use the same algorithm to give you a quote. Give them a call - tell them of your situation and they will help if they can.
I am in the Asia half of Turkey and we have a joint annual worldwide policy, Mrs M has her issues (medical as well!!) and I am a T3 - we pay about £ 750 a year.
Best wishes - Brian.

Hi ,
my OH has palliative PC . The oncologist has never mentioned terminal . So when we filled out the forms we did not go down the terminal path. As it is asked when filling out the online forms.
we used Travel Safe . It might be worth calling them . It was extremely reasonable as some quoted thousands .
best wishes

Brian that's so helpful. I've been getting ridiculous quotes at over 2k up to 4 k for 1 trip. I was getting beyond upset thinking we would never get our ladt dream holiday. Thankyou so much
Best wishes to you too
Thanks Liz ill give them a call
Much appreciated
Best wishes
Another shout for InsuranceWith and, as Millibob said, phone them rather than using the online form. The story behind the founding of Insurance With can be found here:
