Did you know that 97%4 of our customers rate us as ‘Excellent’ or ‘Great?’ Here’s what they have to say about us:
“I needed to purchase holiday insurance for an Italy holiday next March. Even though both myself and my husband have health conditions to add, the system was clear and explanatory every step. Decided on the gold insurance, which covers us for Covid related concerns too. Second time I have purchased for us and would highly recommend!” – Paula
Can I get a refund if I cancel due to a heatwave?
This will depend on your holiday provider’s refund policy. You should contact them directly. You may only get a refund if there is official advice not to travel.
Is it safe to travel to Europe during a heatwave?
The FCDO has not warned against travelling to Europe, but you should check their latest advice before you go. You should also take precautions and drink plenty of water to stay safe.
Does travel insurance cover heatwaves?
You cannot claim under your Travel Insurance if you decide not to travel because of the heat, unless the FCDO advises against travel to your destination. Claims for cancellation will only be considered if your doctor declares you unfit to travel due to the risks associated with travelling to a destination experiencing a heatwave. Each claim will be individually assessed on a case-by-case basis.
Italy is a destination that can be enjoyed any time of the year, but why not enjoy the coastline when it’s at its sunniest?
Different parts of Italy are at their hottest at different times of the year. In the south of Italy, it is hottest in August, and in the north, it is hottest in July. At these peak times, the temperature can reach 38–42 °C.
The GHIC replaced the EHIC card following Brexit. The GHIC (Global Health Insurance Card) entitles you to healthcare while on holiday in Italy. However, the scheme does not cover repatriation and cancellation, so comprehensive Travel Insurance is still essential.
You can apply for a GHIC here.
Policies are tailored to suit the individual, and therefore the price reflects their choices, age, and medical conditions declared.
