When it comes to your health and well-being while travelling, we have you covered. Our Travel Insurance for over 80s offers a range of benefits – just in case something does not go to plan. You’ll be covered for emergency medical expenses and/or dental treatment and repatriation, as well as cancellation and curtailment, baggage and much more.

 

Here are some tips to help you maintain health and wellness during your travels:

Consult with Your Doctor: Before your trip, schedule a visit with your healthcare provider to discuss your travel plans. They can provide guidance specific to your medical needs and advise on any necessary vaccinations, medications, or precautions to take.

Pack Medications and Prescriptions: Ensure you have an ample supply of your medications to last throughout your trip. Carry them in your carry-on luggage, along with the original prescriptions or a letter from your doctor explaining the need for these medications.

Stay Hydrated and Eat Well: Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, especially in warm climates or during long flights. Opt for nutritious meals and snacks to fuel your body with essential vitamins and minerals.

Stay Active: Incorporate light exercises or activities into your daily routine while travelling. Take short walks, explore local sights, or participate in gentle exercises to keep your body active and promote circulation.

Rest and Pace Yourself: Listen to your body and take breaks when needed. Allow yourself time to rest and recover from activities to avoid exhaustion or overexertion.

Don’t let age hold you back from exploring the world. Arrange Travel Insurance for peace of mind and get back to planning your holiday. We’ll compare prices from a range of insurers, many of which are five-star rated, to ensure you have Travel Insurance you can rely on.
