With Multitrip.com, cover for a series of pre-existing medical conditions is automatically included as long as you only have one of them, what this means is that these will be covered for free under your policy. In any other case, you will be required to declare all pre-existing conditions.

How to get cheap travel insurance with comprehensive cover?

After all, you need Travel Insurance with comprehensive cover that will aid in the paying of the expensive costs when travelling. Usually, the cheapest cover has lower limits. However, Multitrip.com provides affordable policies with extensive cover, including up to €20 million on emergency medical in the three Multitrip and Single Trip cover levels, and competitive Personal Liability cover starting at €2 million, for example.

Travel insurance with no excess

When getting travel insurance, you may be caught out with excess fees that will reduce the amount you will get back from your claim and your policy could work out more expensive than you expected. At Multitrip.com, you can avoid these extra bills with our Premier Plus cover level available on Multitrip or Single Trip Insurance. In addition to Winter Sports cover for those up to 66yrs, it also automatically includes an Excess Waiver to remove the excess from the policy.
