Winter Sports Cover - Advice Needed

Hi

I am due to go on a ski-ing holiday in March for one week with my OH. I have an annual insurance policy (that covers us both) with Columbus but unfortunately I'm not able to add winter sports cover to this policy.

I would welcome some advice re what cover my annual policy will provide, ie will it still cover me for airport delays, baggage, personal possessions even whilst I'm on a winter sports holiday and therefore will I only need cover additional winter sports cover to cover personal liability, injury and ski equipment.

If this is the case, is it possible to purchase a scaled down version of a travel insurance policy to cover these additional elements.

Thank you for any help.

    Be careful with cover on ski equipment. A lot of insurance cover is dependant on the items being locked up - not practical for skis and poles outside a restaurant in the mountains.
