Endsleigh Travel Insurance

Endsleigh recognise that different people have different travel needs, and as a result have come up with a range of specialist policies.

There are two different levels of cover to suit any budget - Essential and Comprehensive. Essential allows you to travel with all the vital cover needed for emergencies at an economical price, whilst Comprehensive will give you peace of mind for virtually every eventuality you are likely to encounter on your travels.

Types of travel insurance offered
  • Holiday - Get away - but not from your baggage! A range of specialist holiday insurance policies.

  • Multi-Trip - An annual travel insurance policy that includes business trips, tailor-made to protect you if you travel more than once a year. There are no limits to the number of trips you can take (as long as each one does not exceed 42 days) and most sports and activities are included for no extra charge.

  • Winter Sports - Going on the piste!? Skiing insurance, snowboarding and more!

  • Extreme Activity - From bunjee jumping to mountaineering. 'Activity insurance' is a very special tailor-made policy that allows you to take part in almost all extreme sports and activities.

  • International Students Studying in the UK - A specially designed policy for helping international students studying in the UK. When you travel abroad to study, especially for long periods, this often involves high cost, especially your course fees. This special policy, produced in conjunction with UKCOSA (the Council for International Education), provides all the essential protection that an international student in the UK needs including: Personal Possessions, Medical Costs following an Accident or Illness and Reimbursement of Course Fees. Cover applies whilst you are studying in the UK; travelling to and from the UK and home at the start and end of the course, or each Term for those here for longer perods; and is extended to travelling elsewhere abroad if this is solely for the purpose of your study course.

  • Backpacker - Protection at an economy price for your travel abroad. 'Backpacker insurance' is specially designed for anyone aged 35 or under at the commencement of your trip who needs basic protection at an economy price. With the choice of two levels of cover (Backpacker and Backpacker Plus) you can select the benefits that best suit your budget.

  • Study Abroad - For UK students studying overseas, cover includes luggage and sports insurance. When you travel abroad as part of your full-time studies, you want to feel protected against that nasty surprise. Endsleigh recognise that different people have different travel needs and as a result have come up with different cover options. Unsurprisingly, one is called essential cover for essential protection at an economic price. The other is called comprehensive which gives more extensive cover. The idea is that you benefit from tailor made protection.

  • Gap Year - Full insurance cover wherever your gap year takes you includes most sporting activities. Discounts available. Whether you are taking a year out to work, rest or play, this tailor made policy will give you all the protection you need as long as you are aged 35 or under at the commencement of your trip. Taking into account your budget, Endsleigh offer two different levels of cover: (Gap year and Gap year plus) Gap year allows you to travel with all the vital cover needed for emergencies at a modest premium, whilst Gap year plus cover will give you extra peace of mind while still considering your budget.

  • School Group Travel - Safeguarding your school trip. Insurance for your school trips include non hazardous sports insurance. Wherever you travel, you want to feel protected against that nasty surprise. Endsleigh provides cover for many hundreds of thousands of people travelling all over the world each year. Because the needs of school children are so special and different, Endsleigh offer a policy to suit their individual needs and budget. With this policy, you can arrange the cover you need for each individual trip or journey.

I search the Internet a few weeks ago for on line travel insurance because I was on a business trip to Europe...

I looked at at least half a dozen companies but Endsleigh came up trumps with comprehensive cover in Europe for 6 days at around £16...not bad at all considering all their 'extras' a policy worth paying for..

Two weeks ago upon my return from Europe I booked a flight to Florida with BA and decided to give Endsleigh an other chance for a quote..for 18 Days insurance Worldwide on a fully Comprehensive basis the price was £45 excllent really, considering the inferior insurance offered by some travel comapnies at nearly twice the price....it really does pay to shop around...

I realise that I could have paid for an annual policy but I preferred to go for this one off World Wide Policy...

I have no idea what Endsleigh are like in paying out and as they say up here .... the proof of the pudding is in the eating...I just hope that I never am in the situation to find out how well they deal with you, but with their name a quality of product I would be very surprised if I had a problem with them, I wouldn't have given them my business if I had thought otherwise......you could do a lot worse if you are looking for on line insurance from a reputable company!

I have used Ensleigh's travel insurance on a number of occasions, and found it very suitable for my needs and at a low price too.

I was attracted to this particular company as they have a branch on campus at my university, but being the tight-fisted person I am, I still had a good look round at other companies' prices before deciding to go with Endsleigh.

I can't pass comment on how good they are if the worst happens whilst abroad, as fortunately I have been spared that misfortune. However, their policy will cover you for most things; medical expenses, being attacked or mugged, damage or loss of your luggage, delayed or cancelled trips, legal expenses and even hijacking or being taken hostage.

They offer two levels of cover. I normally find the cheaper 'essential' policy sufficient but if you are taking a lot of stuff with you, the 'comprehensive' cover covers you for a lot more, although the premiums are higher.

As well as having many UK branches (many of which are located on university campuses), you can also book or get quotes on the internet. I have used this service in the past as I find it quick and easy.
