Guide & tips for your Winter Sports holiday

Create a note on your phone with important information: Note your policy number, emergency number, European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) number, and share these details if travelling in a group or as a family.

Review your policy details: Ensure your policy covers your winter sports activity; some activities like heli-skiing may not be covered.

When purchasing your cover: Check for a limit on winter sports duration, different limits may apply depending on the policy type selected.

If you have arranged your holiday (rather than booking through a tour operator): Check that your Travel Insurance coverage is comprehensive enough for problems such as delayed departure or additional accommodation if you cannot get home.

Safeguard your sports equipment: Leaving it unattended in a vehicle could void your coverage. If it's stolen, you'll need a police report. Remember to retain receipts when necessary.

Always abide by local rules: Follow the do's and don'ts for pistes or snowboarding parks.
