Travel Insurance - Prices doubled in 12 months???

Hi all,

We've been looking into renewing our multi-trip annual travel insurance.

Last year, we paid about £100, this year, for exactly the same policy, we're being quoted over £200!

Is that right? Has travel insurance really gone up that much?

Thanks.

    likely to be the effect of the severe weather and ash clouds that meant insurers were paying out a lot more

    Hi
    I use Globelink Travel Insurance and they don't raise the price. Annual multi-trip insurance costs £52-187. It depands from maximum number of days any one trip.

    Apparently, they don't have a suitable policy for me :(

    Decided to go for Direct Travel and used QuidCo.

    I just had to accept it's gone up :eek:
