Speedy claim meant we could still see Borealis!

Great insurance from Staysure allows family to rebook Northern Lights trip

-

ONCE you’ve booked your dream trip, you might be too busy focusing on thoughts of big adventures or sandy white beaches to give much thought to travel insurance.

In fact, many people leave arranging their travel insurance until a week before they depart — but this can be risky if something unexpected crops up.

Melissa and Steve Farmer were looking forward to celebratin­g their 25th wedding anniversar­y with a family holiday — then had to cancel it because their daughter suddenly became unwell.

PRECIOUS MEMORIES

BUT because they had bought highqualit­y insurance with Staysure shortly after they booked, they were able to claim back their outlay quickly — and secure a similar holiday to Norway for five nights soon afterwards, when she was well again.

Melissa says: ‘ We all had the most amazing time and made such precious memories. We even watched the Northern Lights for over an hour, which was the most wonderful, awe-inspiring event.

‘Along with snowmobili­ng, reindeer rides and dog sledding, it truly was one of the best holidays ever!’

Staysure’s speedy settlement of their claim made it all possible.

Melissa adds: ‘Our daughter is now at university studying adult nursing, so if we didn’t go then, the opportunit­y would definitely have been missed!’

SMOOTH REPATRIATI­ON

THE ability to get home quickly for treatment if you have major health problems abroad is another important reason for arranging reliable travel insurance when you are going away.

Staysure’s Mayday service got Raymond Lee and his partner Kerstin Nagel back by air ambulance after Ray ended up in hospital after an emergency during their holiday.

Kerstin told Staysure: ‘Your brilliant organisati­on got us out of miserable circumstan­ces.

‘What a relief! Everything went smoothly and in less than six hours, Ray was lying in his Lancaster hospital bed. As far as I am concerned, you saved him!’ And Chris Ackroyd, who was similarly repatriate­d from a hospital in France, says that Clare, the Staysure Mayday representa­tive who arrived to take them home, was marvellous.

‘We’d been through an ordeal, but suddenly there was Clare!

‘She was excellent, and assumed responsibi­lity for the job in hand with superb confidence, taken away all our anxieties. Thank you Mayday!’

RAVE REVIEWS

STAYSURE has many other happy customers, with more than 20,000 five-star reviews of its insurance policies on Trustpilot.

And its ‘excellent’ comprehens­ive cover has also been awarded the highest possible rating — five-stars — by independen­t moderator Defaqto.

It’s the number one travel insurer for people aged 50 and over†, with no upper age limit on single trip policies, meaning you can get quality cover and travel the world, regardless of your age.

And Staysure’s medical travel insurance specialise­s in covering people with pre-existing conditions, who could struggle to get cover elsewhere.

This means 98 per cent of customers are covered* after a simple medical screening process — even those with conditions such as asthma, high blood pressure, diabetes and arthritis.

If you are something of a jet-setter, or simply like to head off more than once a year, an annual travel insurance policy could be the best deal for you.

However, if the holiday is a rare treat, then single trip insurance is likely to be your best option.

And there are long-stay policies, as well as the comprehens­ive options.

More than a million customers are insured by Staysure, entrusting it with the protection and safety of their holiday.

Staysure’s appeal is down to its impeccable customer service and great policy benefits, all provided for a sensible price.

A high-quality travel insurance policy is essential to give you total peace of mind while on holiday.

Although no one likes to think of situations where they might need their travel insurance, Staysure customers can be safe in the knowledge that they have first-class cover should the unforeseen happen.
