If your quoted premiums for travel insurance seem excesive it might be worth looking at some of the bank account packages which include things like travel insurance, AA membership, credit card protection etc subject to a small monthy fee, which is the same cost regardless of age and includes both partners with joint accounts.

Our travel insurance through a Lloyds Gold account will be effective until we are 80, so a good few years to go yet!
Surprisingly, most of the common medical conditions and medications that come with advancing years don't have to be notified to the insurers.

We always fly to Kef from Manchester, but I am pleased to see that Jet2 will be flying from East Midlands next year. For us it is only an extra 20 minutes drive and a much pleasanter experience at the airport.

Thanks Phil The Problems start when you start hitting the mid 70's and got previous as my husband has. Last year for two separate 1week hols(you cannot get annual at our age or if you have previous) it cost over £300,with Saga which I reckon is a bit too much.  I have heard of one called Insure With, which my brother has used and his wife is just recovering from Cancer. I believe it has been set up by a lady recovering from Cancer herself . May ask for a quote when we are ready. Banks insurance is no good for anyone with existing conditions at our age. Would be interested to hear from anyone who is in the same boat. We are not dropping dead with serious problems just the general old age things but unless you tell the insurance the "colour of your underwear "they soon start creating stink if you have to make a claim. Had to call Doc out last year for small problem. He came 3 times ,put two plasters on my husbands leg and issued a fly cert to come home. First time ever had to call out doc in almost 30yrs travel .After 6months backwards and forwards with insurance forms after we returned home I am hopeful they have finally paid the poor Doctor. They tried every which way to squirm out of paying even asking for our bank details and credit card details to see if we had the kind of accounts they could get something towards it to save themselves having to cough up. Makes you feel like "Can't be bothered" i'll stay in UK
