Compare Travel Insurance
When travelling abroad, you should remember the benefits of having Travel Insurance. Anything can happen during your trip and a good travel insurance policy will provide practical help through the emergency assistance service and also help you recoup any financial loss – such as medical bills. Unfortunately, not everyone buys travel insurance because they believe it’s too expensive. This could be the biggest mistake you could ever make because overseas doctors and medical bills can easily run into thousands. You can compare Travel Insurance policies to find the deal that’s right for you so that you are only paying for what you need.

You can compare some of the different types of policies available below:
Single Trip Travel Insurance
Single Trip Travel Insurance is designed for people who take one to two trips a year. Trip durations can vary from as little as a few days to 15 months in length, depending on your age. Choose between Economy cover that provides the basics, to Regular cover, up to Comprehensive, which offers the best cover we provide.
Longstay, Backpacker and Gap Year Trips
If you are aged up to 50 you can also choose between two Longstay policies: Globetrekkers Standard and Globetrekkers Standard Plus. These policies offer a budget option for anyone on a longer trip. The cheapest option is Globetrekkers Standard if you do not require cover for your baggage, personal possessions, money etc.
Already Travelling Option
Unlike most other providers, Globelink offers Travel Insurance even when you have already left home. You can buy an Already Travelling Policy if you have already started your trip, or forgotten to buy travel insurance, or if your policy has expired. This is subject to the total period outside of your usual country of residence within the EU not exceeding 18 months and also that no claim has previously occurred. For example, if you lost your camera yesterday, you can’t take out this insurance today and make a claim for it!
Winter Sports Travel Insurance
If you intend to do any Winter Sports while you are away, make sure you take out a Winter Sports Policy that covers the activities that you plan. This offers the same level of cover as Comprehensive insurance, but includes Winter Sporting Activities and Equipment cover. The “Winter Sports” package is available for Single, Annual Multi Trip and for every Area of Travel. This is available for persons up to 65 years old.
