Travel Insurance
WHY SHOULD YOU BUY TRAVEL INSURANCE?
It is a condition of our acceptance of your booking that you obtain appropriate travel insurance when travelling abroad so you are protected in the case of a medical emergency but also cancellations, delays, loss of baggage, and other possible unexpected disruptions to your travel plans. Please note, it is your sole responsibility to ensure that the travel insurance purchased is suitable for your particular needs, including without limitation, in respect of any pre-existing medical conditions
