Terms and conditions apply.
Many bank accounts and credit cards come with some level of travel insurance cover. While some may be comprehensive, they may not cover you for everything you have planned whilst you’re away, particularly if you have adventurous plans or unusual excursions booked. For example, you might not be covered for emergency medical costs you could incur if you have na accident or need medical treatment.
Make sure you look into the travel insurance policy that you have before every trip, to make sure it’s suitable for you and your plans.
Purchasing a holiday using a credit card means you are often protected by Consumer Protection cover. In most cases, it allows you to get your money returned to you if your provider defaults and you cannot travel.
If you have booked a holiday through a tour operator or travel agent, it may be worth checking if you are covered by ABTA (Association of British Travel Agents) or ATOL (Air Travel Organiser’s License). This type of cover means that your package holiday is protected if, for example, the travel company providing your holiday arrangements or the travel agent themselves fail financially or close down.
Your travel agents will be able to tell you if your holiday is ABTA or ATOL protected. Alternatively, use the links provided to check your cover at home.
Having a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) or Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) will entitle you to the government-provided healthcare of the European Union country you are visiting and lowering the medical expenses you would normally expect to pay.
Although this is a good addition to take on holiday, a European Health Insurance Card or Global Health Insurance Card should not be seen as a replacement for travel insurance which could provide you with further protection and peace of mind whilst you are abroad. Our travel insurance policies can protect you against many unforeseen eventualities.
Depending on the policy and level of cover you choose, your travel insurance may cover you for emergency medical expenses if you fall ill or have an accident while on holiday and require medical treatment. Your insurance policy can also help with any associated expenses or unexpected costs, and repatriation should you need help returning home.

Travel insurance is always worthwhile when you're heading abroad, even if you're visiting a relatively safe location like mainland Europe or somewhere close by. After all, the unexpected can still happen: your flight could be cancelled, you could eat something that disagrees with you or you could be targeted by thieves.
It's also important to know that, if you're travelling to Europe your GHIC card doesn't cover all of your medical needs and many of the most expensive services like repatriation (bringing you back home if you've had an accident or need emergency medical care) aren't covered. Plus, your GHIC only covers you for basic health treatments; you won't be protected against things like holiday cancellation, and loss or theft of your belongings.
Sadly, even on the shortest holidays, accidents can happen. When you have holiday insurance, we can help to reduce your worries around medical costs, flight delays, lost items and thefts, leaving you to enjoy your holiday and create precious memories.
If anything does happen and you're not insured, it could end up costing you a lot of money. Thankfully, the best holiday insurance policies can help protect you. Whether you're taking the family to the beach, hitting the slopes on a skiing holiday, venturing on a backpacking holiday or making the most of your retirement, buying travel insurance can be essential for keeping you and your loved ones protected. You will be covered if you need emergency medical care, your trip gets cancelled or delayed, or your personal belongings are lost or stolen. Once you've booked your travel insurance with Allianz Assistance, all you need to do is get excited about your break and pack your bags. You can enjoy peace of mind from the second you book, to the minute you return home.
