Travel cover? It’s worth doing right

-

WE ALL know the old adage that if something is worth doing, it’s worth doing right.

And that’s rarely more apt than when it comes to choosing medical travel insurance. A discerning choice means you’ll have all the care and support you need in the event of a health scare abroad — rather than risk being left vulnerable.

Staysure has always believed that travel insurance is worth doing right.

Its cover, designed particular­ly for over-50s who want to do the best by their health, is built around individual needs and covers a whole range of pre-existing conditions, from raised blood pressure to asthma, diabetes and arthritis.

In fact, it’s tailor-made, just for you — as revealed in Staysure’s stunning new TV advert, which you can view at staysure.co.uk.

Made in Rome in a filmic style, it shows an actor having a beautiful bespoke suit made for him, capturing the artistry and skill of real-life tailors Armando Rubino and his assistants.

The son of a Sicilian tailor, Mr Rubino moved to Rome more than 50 years ago, when he was 13, to perfect his skills in the city’s leading workshops, before opening his own.

‘I owe everything to my father. I was just a child, but I was already enchanted by his ability to get a simple piece of cloth and give it such a perfect shape,’ he says.

Today, his creations made on Via Frattina are enjoyed by actors and politician­s, to name a few.

The ad’s authentic depiction is a celebratio­n of the personalis­ed experience this skilled Roman craftsman offers — and echoes Staysure’s own distinctly bespoke approach.

Making the ad wasn’t all smooth sailing, however. Unpredicta­ble traffic and dull, cold, February weather all had to be overcome in historic Via Giulia (pictured top right), where giant lights were set up to simulate sunlight.

And although the original intention was to film at Mr Rubino’s workshop, space meant the crew had to relocate to the grand Villa Vitetti manor house, where a tailor’s room was recreated in the library. Many of the shots were unchoreogr­aphed, as the tailors carried out their trade, ensuring naturalnes­s and authentici­ty — and demonstrat­ing their high standards, which depend on doing things right.

Similarly, high calibre travel insurance that meets your needs is essential to give you peace of mind on holiday.

It’s so important to know that, should the unexpected happen, you’ve got first-class cover from an insurer that tailor-makes each and every policy to the individual customer to get it just right.
