probably really silly travel insurance question........

:confused: !'ve never taken out family travel insurance before, as we've always left the kids at home! Anyway, I am trying to arrange cover for all of us, and it seems that the cover is not increased when taking out a family policy. eg. £2500 cancellation and £400 valuables limit. Now that would be enough just for me, but no-where near enough for 4 of us. Is this then per person, just per adult, or per family?

    I would imagine if it is a family policy the limits quoted would be for the total.
    How many children do you have and what ages? The only reason I ask is that it may be worth looking for individual quotes for any adults and looking at how children are covered if you take out policies. I believe certain ages of children are covered free on some policies.
    Indecision is the key to flexibility :)

    it's for me, OH, 4 year old and baby. I've got quotes with loads of companies, and it seems the kids are covered for free, but with all the companies the policy summary just lists amounts covered, not if it's per person. None of them explain if this is per person or per policy.
