Here’s what they have to say about us:
“When I spoke to your rep Martin, he was very helpful, going through all the necessary questions with a very understanding attitude concerning my medical problems. Very easy to speak to plus clear understanding, I would clearly state he is a credit to your firm. I will also be booking with All Clear for my next trip to Greece in Sept, simply because of your reps easy-going attitude with customers, plus of course, reasonable rates. Thanks Again.” – Robert Cameron
If you’re injured or fall ill due to a wildfire or heatwave, your policy will cover you in the normal way, per policy terms and conditions. You would not be covered if you have visited an area against FCDO advice.
The main purpose of Travel Insurance is to cover the costs of emergency medical treatment or repatriation if the worst happens. These costs can easily run into hundreds of thousands of pounds.
Travel Insurance can cover you if you need to cancel or cut short your holiday, but this is only under particular circumstances, not because of a disinclination to travel.
You could be covered for cancellation if you are in receipt of a signed medical exemption certificate from a medical practitioner advising you not to travel as you are deemed to be a significant risk due to your existing medical conditions. In the event of making a claim for cancellation in these circumstances, each case will be reviewed on a case by case basis.
You cannot claim under your policy if you personally decide not to travel because you are worried about wildfires.
Travel Insurance can cover you if advice from the FCDO changes after you’ve booked your trip or purchased your policy and it’s no longer considered safe to travel to the destination.
If the FCDO advise against travel to a destination as a result of a wildfire, and you choose to travel against this advice, there is no cover under any section of your AllClear policy.
If your flight or accommodation is cancelled, you should first speak to your airline, accommodation provider or tour operator to seek refunds or replacement flights. Any bookings made through a credit card may also have recoverable costs. If your policy includes travel disruption, you are covered if you have to cut short or cancel your holiday due to the ongoing wildfires.
You will need to contact your holiday provider in the first instance. If they cannot provide a refund or alternative accommodation/flights, and you cannot recover your costs elsewhere, you may need to log a claim with your travel insurance provider.
If you are an AllClear policy holder you will need to have travel disruption cover in place. If you wish to return home earlier than planned, you will need approval from our 24h emergency assistance team in order for claims to be considered. Claims for cancellation will be considered if the FCDO advice changes and they advise to not travel to the affected country.
In order to ensure you are covered for events such as wildfires, you would need a policy which includes our optional travel disruption cover. This can be added to any AllClear Travel Insurance policy and includes up to £1,000 for delayed or missed departure and accommodation expenses. You would be covered:
If your flight is delayed due to the wildfires for over 12 hours, we can consider claims for you abandoning your trip. For this cover to apply, the fires would need to be an unknown event at the time of you purchasing the policy or booking the trip. For more information please see our Greek wildfire guide.
We can offer you cover to the Greek islands as long as the FCDO is not currently advising against travel. Make sure you select each island you wish to visit when purchasing cover.
We offer comprehensive cover for:
Cyprus Crete Mykonos Santorini Greece
If you have a Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC), it can be used in Rhodes. However, it cannot be solely relied upon for all types of medical claims. The only way to properly protect yourself is with comprehensive travel insurance.
If you don’t already have a GHIC card, you can request one online.
