    for the 3 of you for 1 week is £25 for 2 week it's £27.50

    We have used these for a few years now and always find them ok. You can purchase on-line and the policy is sent out to you the next day.

    can anyone recommend a cheap insurance company for a 67 year old in Madeira for 14 days in January 2006?

    also any cheap multi-trip insurance for above age?
    thanks to everyone who has thanked me!

    Just a word of warning for anyone travelling to the US. Make sure that your insurance company has a contact telephone number within the US or a UK freephone number that can be called from the States. I had to have a routine blood test whilst in Florida a few weeks ago. This had been OK'd by E-sure and they told us to get the hospital to ring them on their helpline number and they would sort out payment direct. However the helpline number was an ordinary UK tel. no. and the hospital would not ring outside the US. We therefore had to pay before they would let us leave the hospital. Incidentally, this routine blood test will cost about £500!

    I've used these for a few years now. Haven't tested them with a claim yet, but their prices and service have been fine so far.

    I'd agree with that too, but haven't made a claim either.

    i have had some good prices back for a 11 night stay in greece but when you check the wots covered as far as sports and stuff no mention of cover for the jet ski so has anyone looked at the print with regards to this. There was lots of dif, activities mentioned but not that and if it is not there it says you are to assume there is no cover
    any advice please DEE

    Have been given a quote for £10/£13 for 6 days in France. Do you acutally get your policy by post if you order online and there is no need for you to download it?
    Not flying till beginning of June, I guess, I can buy the insurance at the last minute online.
