In most cases, children cannot travel independently of the parents under a Family policy, least one of the insured parents/guardians must travel with the children. However, we do offer this on our Voyager Premier DoubleCover Policy. Be sure to read in the 'Key Points of Cover', as it will advise you there. How do you define a couple?

No Cover is provided before the Start Date. When does the cover start for Single Trip Policies? For Single-trip Polices, the cover starts from the Issue Date of the policy, and is valid for travel between the Start Date, and the End Date requested. Cancellation cover is provided from the Issue Date. One of the persons to be covered on the policy has an existing medical condition, can I still have cover under your policies? Some existing medical conditions can be covered but only with the underwriter's approval.

You must report any theft or loss within 24 hours of discovery to the local police or to a person responsible for the transportation/accommodation element of your holiday. Once you have reported the incident to the local authorities you will need to ask them to provide a written report and this will need to be submitted with your claim form. How do I make a claim? For medical emergencies, please call our specialist multi-lingual emergency services for immediate help. Emergency contact numbers are shown on your policy certificate, When you contact them tell them that you are insured with the 'Insure Pay' and give them the following information: What if I discover that I am pregnant?
