Choose the right Travel Insurance with My Travel Extras

Using our quick search, you can pick the right travel insurance for you as simply as possible.

When you spend ages choosing your holiday, you can forget a very important part of the package. Travel insurance is one of the most important parts of your holiday and often the element forgotten or given little thought. It is always a wise move to take out insurance when travelling, so that you are covered if the worst happens.

Why Take Out Travel Insurance?

By purchasing a travel insurance plan, you are covering yourself and all those on the insurance policy in the unfortunate eventuality of an accident, emergency, theft or other losses & protecting yourself against the risks associated with travel.

Why buy Travel Insurance from us?

Many high street travel agents will try to sell you a policy WITH your holiday. This cover can often be inadequate and/or over-priced. A Defaqto consumer panel report into travel insurance revealed that UK holidaymakers, despite shopping around more, could be wasting up to £175 million every year by being overcharged for their travel insurance. This sum could be saved if holidaymakers bought policies from insurance providers rather than from tour operators and travel agents.

Your travel insurance policy is issued quickly and safely and you can choose a policy to suit your exact travel or holiday needs. We try to find you the travel insurance policy that suits the criteria of your business trip or holiday, rather than blanket cover for things you don't need - whatever the reason for your journey, we hope to find you and your friends and family the perfect travel insurance policy at the best price
