Great savings on 
Travel Insurance

You should be covered in most destinations if the country you’re going to is safe to visit. To check if your destination is safe to visit, take a look at the FCDO’s travel advice. The FCDO’s (Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office) advice can change at any time, so make sure you check it’s safe to travel before you set off.

If the FCDO, World Health Organisation or local authorities have advised against ‘all’ or ‘all but essential’ travel to your destination, then it won’t be safe for you to travel there.

If you travel against FCDO advice, your policy will become invalid and won’t cover you if you need to claim. Even if advice changes while you’re on holiday, you won’t be covered if your destination was listed as unsafe when you travelled.

Your travel insurance should cover you for strikes—as long as the strike action wasn’t common knowledge when you booked your trip or took out your policy (whichever came later).

If you have a Staysure policy, you can make a claim for emergency travel or accommodation costs if the strike causes disruption to your plans. If your trip is delayed by more than 12 hours due to the strike, you’re also covered to abandon your trip and submit a cancellation claim.

Need to arrive late to start your trip because of industrial action? Our policies can help with arranging overnight accommodation and alternative travel, so you can still make the most of your holiday.
