Why Do I need Winter Sports Cover on My Travel Insurance?
Whilst we hope you enjoy your experience of skiing or doing other winter sports activities on your trip without incident, unfortunately, things can go wrong, especially with winter sports activities which can sometimes be dangerous due to injuries.
If your travel insurance policy does not include coverage for winter sports activities, and you suffer an injury from doing these activities you may find that you are not covered for any Emergency Medical Expenses and you may face paying a hefty emergency medical expense for any treatment needed, including any medical evacuation such as piste rescue should you need it, which could run into thousands of pounds on its own.
High Risk Voyager Travel Insurance with Winter Sports Cover can provide you with the peace of mind you need to enjoy your adventurous trip should the unexpected happen. To get travel insurance including winter sports cover, simply add the Winter Sports Cover option in the quote process.
The Optional Winter Sports Cover add-on is available on the following policies...
