Prices shown are indicative UK market rates for comparison only. Your actual premium will depend on your property, location, claims history and level of cover.
Annual multi-trip travel insurance covers an unlimited number of trips over a 12-month period, up to a maximum length per trip, typically 21, 31 or 45 days.
It works out cheaper than buying single-trip cover separately for anyone taking more than two or three holidays a year, and removes the hassle of arranging new cover before every departure.
One annual premium usually costs less than three or more single-trip policies.
You are automatically covered for any trip within the policy's maximum duration.
The same medical, cancellation and baggage limits apply to every trip you take.
Overseas medical care and repatriation on every trip within the policy year.
Any number of trips covered up to the maximum length per trip, usually 21 to 45 days.
Lost, delayed or damaged luggage on each trip taken during the year.
Non-refundable costs if any trip during the year has to be cancelled.
Compensation for significant delays on outbound or return travel.
Add-on cover for skiing and snowboarding trips within the policy year.
Insurers price based on your age, the geographical area covered (Europe vs worldwide), the maximum trip length, and any pre-existing medical conditions declared.
Choosing a shorter maximum trip length, such as 21 days instead of 45, generally reduces the premium since it caps the insurer's exposure per trip.
If you take three or more trips abroad a year, annual cover is almost always better value than buying single-trip policies each time.
It also suits people who book trips at short notice, since cover is already in place rather than needing to be arranged before every departure.
Check the maximum trip length matches your longest planned holiday — exceeding it invalidates cover for that trip. Compare medical cover limits, and confirm whether winter sports or cruise cover need adding separately.
Choosing Europe-only cover instead of worldwide if that is all you need, opting for a shorter maximum trip length, and paying annually rather than monthly all help reduce the cost.
