in Credit cards
Lloyds have a card with free travel insurance for over 70'S, but cancellation limited to £5k per person. Anyone know of cards with higher limits, or where a premium can be added if a higher cost holiday is envisaged,

Are you wanting a credit card with it or a current account (as the NW Flex+ is a current account)?
Most banks have a travel insurance bonus for their packaged current accounts. You can use http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/banking/best-fee-charging-current-accounts to see which banks may be best for you.
Credit cards you are going to be fairly limited on as not that many do packages anymore. Even the American Express Platinum now has an age limit of 70 for medical expenses but does give 7.5k of cancellation cover0 -
