Travel insurance after cancer

Hi, my son has had throat and neck cancer, a pet ct scan showed he is now cancer free. Me and my husband would like to take him and our granddaughter on holiday in March, Covid-19 rules permitting. He has been quoted £1200 for travel insurance. I would be so grateful if anyone could recommend a reliable, reasonable insurance company.

Thank you so much.

  • Hi, I had a similar situation with trying to find a reasonably priced travel insurance, the difference was I was going to America and mid chemo, so mine ended up costing me almost the price of the holiday! I used Saga in the end, who were the cheapest of the lot. I think they base the prices on how long ago he was having treatment and of course where you are going. Good luck  

  • Hi, Shazzlebert, thanks so much for your reply. My husband is on a lot of heart medication after a heart attack and cardiac arrest, he is more likely to need emergency treatment than my son, but the insurance has never been nearly as much as the quotes he's been getting. He'll try Saga if they'll accept him, he's 43, I thought they were for the over 50s, but we'll have a look at them.

    I hope you enjoyed your holiday, and you're ok now.
