Holiday insurance for 2 friends

Will be holidaying with a friend to Switzerland. Can we get insurnce that would cover us if one or the other had to cancel through illness as neither would want to travel on our own.

    Yes, most policies will cover this.

    Yes.

    Check the policy wording, but most include cancelling if an insured problem happens to your travelling companion and forces them to cancel

    I have relatively basic travel insurance as my main concerns are foreign medical costs but my policy covers cancellation if someone you're travelling with or staying with has to cancel due to illness. It's fairly standard.
