Our winter sports travel insurance features comprehensive cover which is designed specifically to meet the needs of skiers and snowboarders. As with all our policies, you have the reassurance of knowing that the range and levels of our insurance cover are among the most comprehensive available anywhere, with multi-lingual medical assistance just a telephone call away, 24 hours a day. You also have the extra safety of being covered on and off piste.
Helicopter recovery, mountain rescue and air ambulance are included as standard, so you can ski in the knowledge that you are fully covered if you suffer serious injury on the mountain.
If you plan to go paragliding, we can provide additional extensions to the policy to cover you for this.
Skiis and snowboards, whether your own or hired, are covered both on and off the mountain, as well as in transit. In addition to insuring you for any equipment which is lost, stolen or damaged, we also provide up to £300 for the hire of replacements whilst you are in the resort.
Other things covered by the policy include compensation for piste closure, as well as holiday cancellation due to lack of snow. We also cover you for other weather-related risks, such as missed connections or extra accommodation expenses incurred because of an avalanche or sudden bad weather.
In addition to areas of the policy which are specific to skiing and snowboarding, our winter sports insurance also includes everything which you will find on our regular travel insurance policies.
Alternative options
Winter sports cover can, of course, be included on our annual travel policies, so if you plan to take a summer holiday as well, these are often a good option. Our Prima Ski annual policy includes 24 days' skiing, as well as general worldwide or European travel for an unlimited number of trips of up to 60 days each during the year.
Couples and families
Family travel insurance policies include an unlimited number of children under the age of 18, including step and foster children. In addition, people under 23 are classed as children on family policies, if they are still in full-time education. Unmarried and same-sex couples are treated in exactly the same way as married couples, provided they have been living at the same residential address for the last 12 months.
What you need to tell us
To ensure that this insurance provides adequate cover, it is important that you tell us if you have any existing medical conditions. You must also tell us of any fact that is likely to influence us in the assessment or acceptance of this insurance. Failure to do so may mean that you have insufficient cover in the event of a claim.
Policy excess
In most cases, an excess of £50 applies to single trip policies. However, we do not apply it where claims are just for benefit payments - for example, for travel delay. Alternatively, you have the option to remove the excess, if you wish. For each claim, we only apply one excess per person, regardless of how many sections of the policy the claim covers.
Flexibility
All of our policies are designed to be flexible, so if you want something a little different, just ask!
Eligibility
Our winter sports policies are for people under the age of 65.
(Must have been a resident of the UK for the last 12 months).
