Travel Insurance

Why Choose Saga Travel Insurance

When you are looking for travel insurance, there are many things to consider – from the price and features of the policy to the quality of service that comes with it.

Here are some of the reasons you may choose Saga Travel Insurance:

24–hour medical emergency support

If you are covered by Saga Travel Insurance and become ill or injured during your trip, here are just some of the things we will pay for:

  • Emergency medical treatment
  • Rescue services to take you to hospital
  • The cost of getting you home to the UK if you are unable to use your return ticket
  • Hospital benefit towards incidental expenses for each day you spend in hospital.

Saga Travel Assistant Helpline

If you are covered by Saga Travel Insurance, our travel assistant service is there to help you in an emergency and provide 24–hour worldwide support including:

  • How to replace lost or stolen passports, driving licences, air tickets, or other travel documents
  • How to trace your luggage if it is lost or delayed
  • Why, how, where and when you should contact local embassies or consulates
  • How to transfer money out of the country if you need it
  • Guidance for you and your relatives, friends or employers if you are unfortunate enough to go into hospital
  • A 'phone home' service if there is an emergency
  • A translation and interpretation service if you need it.

UK based call centres and no automated telephone menus

We aim to provide a high level of customer service and, during opening hours, your call will always be answered by a person rather than a telephone menu system.
