Single trip insurance

You’re off to the mountains to challenge the slopes and then have a few drinks by the fire. That’s a fantastic holiday and one that many enjoy every year. There’s nothing like the rush of speeding down the mountain with the cold wind in your face.

Unfortunately, it can also mean a trip to emergency for treatment of strains, sprains, and broken bones. You don’t want to be caught in a situation where you are spending your holiday cash on medical bills. Be sure to purchase skiing single trip insurance to cover you for these unfortunate events.

It is easy and cheap to purchase single trip insurance with a winter sports add-on. It will cost you roughly 20 pounds or more extra than basic single trip insurance but is worth the money. So many things can happen, so protect your holiday with the proper insurance policy.

Pay attention to the exclusions and excesses when comparing rates to ensure you receive the cover you need. Be sure that you are covered for your own ski equipment or that your hired equipment is included.

If you are planning a skiing trip to Canada or the United States, you will need to look for single trip insurance that covers these countries. There is not a large difference in cost but again, read the small print and review the excesses and exclusions to get the most appropriate cover.

If you choose to ski off-piste, you need to be aware of your cover. If you are planning to ski off-piste, disclose this to your insurance company. If you are not covered and a rescue operation is needed you are looking at some serious costs being charged to you. Be careful.

Skiing is a great winter sport and will challenge you in many ways. Be sure to protect you and your loved ones by purchasing skiing single trip insurance cover.
