Question

Going to Dominican in a couple of months and was looking for cheap travel insurance (I am a Scot after all! ). Have tried the usual suspects - Tescos and Directline, best quote so far is £65 for my wife and I... Don't want anything fancy like sports cover but good medical cover is important.

Any recommendations??

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Jim

Annual policies are much better value if there is any chance you'll be travelling again.

You can get family cover 'free' with certain Amex cards.

Cool

I forgot to get travel insurance for when I moved across to Australia. Still, nothing happened, so I am pretty thankful.

I now have private health cover and it includes limited health and travel cover for overseas.
