Under - 18 Holiday insurance

caxia

My 16 yr old daughter is travelling to St Lucia next week with family friends for a weeks holiday (lucky for some!). I wanted to get her a single trip holiday policy to make sure she is covered but cant get any quotes as she is not yet 18. (she is 17 in August).

Could anyone recommend a company or a way to make sure she is adequately protected?

Many thanks!

Post Office? Insurance Broker? Pay the family to put her on their policy?

Thomas cook sell policies for under 18's, its not the cheapest but its an option if your struggling.

We use the Post Office when my lad goes away with our friends.

Just reread your post properly i had read she was 17, as she is only 16 she will get a child policy and these are really cheap at TC, i don't know off the top of my head how much worldwide insurance is but europe for a week is about £3.50 and other than the excess is really good value, you could always have a look how much it would cost to waive the excess.
