Asking for a friend, having searched for recent posts about the topic.

Any recent advice about companies worth checking, Australians travelling to Europe, aged 82. Anything besides Covermore? Thanks.

Go Insurance. They also have good cruise cover.

Not 80 yet but they say will cover to 100. And twice we have made a claim - not massive but in both cases money back in less than a week.

I was hoping you’d throw your advice in too, as in the past. I’ll certainly pass it on to our friends who are inveterate travellers but have hit the 81 cut off. Thank you.

One of us is over 80. Have had cover with Allianz for many trips including cruises. They cover pre existing medical conditions with an extra fee. Have had 2 large claims for medical issues that prevented us from travelling, both paid promptly once all the relevant paperwork was sent to them.

Fantastic to hear firsthand experience. Thanks for that. Keep up the travel! We are off tomorrow for 9 weeks.
