Can Single Trip travel insurance cover several countries?
Potentially, yes. One Single Trip policy can cover an eligible continuous journey involving several destinations.
Enter the countries included in your journey when requesting a quote so the itinerary and geographical cover can be checked.
Does Single Trip mean I can only visit one destination?
No. Single Trip refers to one continuous insured journey, not necessarily one country.
Your trip may include several eligible destinations provided they are included when arranging your cover and the complete journey meets the policy requirements.
Is Single Trip or Annual Multi-Trip travel insurance better for seniors?
Single Trip cover is generally the simpler choice if you have one specific journey planned.
Annual Multi-Trip cover may be more convenient if you expect to take several eligible trips during the next 12 months and are within the annual age limits.
OGSure Annual Multi-Trip cover may be available up to age 79.
Is Single Trip travel insurance cheaper than Annual Multi-Trip cover?
Not necessarily.
The price depends on factors including your age, country of residence, destinations, travel dates, policy currency and any optional extras selected.

Does Single Trip seniors travel insurance cover emergency medical treatment and repatriation?
Yes, subject to the policy terms and exclusions.
OGSure can provide up to £6.5 million or $8 million for eligible emergency medical and related expenses abroad, with medical evacuation and repatriation included within that limit.
Can I buy Single Trip cover if I have a pre-existing medical condition?
Yes. Having a pre-existing medical condition does not automatically prevent you from buying an OGSure policy.
However, claims arising directly or indirectly from a pre-existing medical condition are excluded.
What may still be covered if I have a pre-existing medical condition?
Other policy benefits may still apply when the event and claim are unrelated to your pre-existing medical condition.
This could include an eligible new and unrelated illness or injury, baggage loss or theft, travel delay, missed departure, public liability or cancellation for an unrelated covered reason.
Do I need a medical screening to buy OGSure Single Trip travel insurance?
OGSure does not use a full medical screening process in its standard online quote journey.
If you make a claim, medical information may be requested to determine whether the claim is connected to a pre-existing medical condition.

Can I add winter sports or adventure sports cover to a Single Trip policy?
Potentially, yes.

Always check that your exact planned activities meet the policy requirements.
Does Single Trip travel insurance cover cancellation before I leave?
Yes, subject to the policy terms and exclusions.
For Single Trip policies, cancellation cover begins when the insurance is taken out and continues until the insured trip begins.
Known or foreseeable circumstances and other policy exclusions are not covered.
When should I buy Single Trip travel insurance?
It usually makes sense to arrange your policy soon after booking your trip.
Because eligible cancellation cover can begin when your Single Trip insurance is taken out, buying earlier may provide protection against covered cancellation events that happen before departure.
Can I buy OGSure Single Trip travel insurance if I live outside the UK?
Potentially, yes. OGSure can cover eligible residents of many countries, and your journey does not necessarily have to begin in the UK.
Your usual country of residence is generally the country where you normally live or work for more than three consecutive months. Your residence and destinations must be eligible.
Can Single Trip seniors travel insurance cover the USA or Canada?
Potentially, yes.
Cover for the USA, Canada and other destinations depends on your country of residence, the geographical area selected and the policy exclusions.
Enter the countries included in your journey when requesting a quote.
What should I do in a medical emergency during my Single Trip?
Get urgent local medical help first, then contact OGSure's 24/7 Emergency Assistance Centre as soon as possible.
You must contact the assistance team for inpatient treatment, hospitalisation, MRI or CT scans, medical evacuation or repatriation.
If you're physically unable to make contact immediately, you or someone acting for you must do so within 48 hours.
