Terrorism

What to do and where to find information if the country you are visiting, or are due to be travelling to, has been affected by an act of terrorism.

Customers who are due to visit a country affected by an act of terrorism

Generally, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) will update its travel advice on the country affected by terrorist activity. In some cases, this may not result in any advice not to travel but in others the advice may be not to travel unless it is essential (a holiday would not be considered essential under Saga Travel Insurance) or even not to travel at all. (See FCO Advice Against Travel section for the cover provided).
