Any recommendations for annual travel insurance for a couple
approaching
70?
Last years European cover (with Preferential) of £118 is now going up
to
£153 and this year we need Worldwide. No major health problems, last
year
my
controlled hypertension and acid reflux was included in the quote.
Since
then a small aortic aneurysm has been discovered which will be
measured
again in 18 months and my blood sugar has gone up to 7.3 which
medicine
by
numbers says is Diabetic as the normal limit is 7.1! When I asked my
doctor
what to say to an insurance company, he said "Tell them nothing, none
of
it
is really a factor"


For those aged 70-74, Which? recommends annual policy for those with medical
conditions:
insureandgo £125
www.halifax.co.uk/insurance £140.
For 75+ (for future reference):
www.americanexpress.co.uk/travelquote £158 (no max age)
