Over 65 Insurance for Egypt

[HelpfulHarry]

Can anyone reccomend Travel Insurance for a 68 year old for two weeks in Egypt - rest of family group are covered by their bank. Previously used Egg which was cheap but only for European destinations. I do know that some companies will include Egypt in their European cover but rang AXA who cover Egg and they said definitely world-wide needed.

Have a look at this link - I put in some dates, your age & Egypt and it brought up this comparison page

Esure or Ensure (can't remember) but they are excellent, espcially for single items i.e. video cameras, as they cover for eg �500 where other companies have a limit on single items of �150.00. Otherwise, SAGA and the Post Office.

Check out Age Concern's travel insurance:

Or try Intune Insurance (which is wholly owned by Help The Aged):

Some people find Saga surprisingly expensive for insurance but, since they've just insured my car for a third less than anyone else could offer, I've got to include them in my list of possibilities for travel insurance:

Many thanks for your help, I had forgotten about Post Office - will try them. Did use them before being seduced away by Egg who offered Annual Euro Cover for only �20 - till I got to 65 of course!
