What makes goodtogoinsurance.com different to standard travel insurance policies?

Cancer travel insurance - Medical Screening

We will ask you a series of simple questions about your cancer when you get a quote for one of our cancer travel insurance policies. This helps us to provide you with appropriate travel insurance cover for your holiday - it's very easy and will only take a few minutes.

Standard insurers often keep their premiums low by excluding cancer patients. Goodtogoinsurance.com is different. If you suffer from cancer, you can go through our simple medical screening process to help you get appropriate cancer travel insurance cover for your needs.

Cover your travelling companions on the same policy

We can also provide cover for your travel companions on the same travel insurance policy. If your holiday has to be cancelled due to your cancer and you need to make a claim, your companions can also claim. This is unlikely to be the case if your travelling companions buy travel insurance through another provider.

Why declare your cancer when you buy travel insurance?

In order to get appropriate cancer travel insurance that will cover the cost of incidents arising as a result of your cancer, you must declare your illness when you buy a policy.

By declaring your cancer, we will be able to provide appropriate travel insurance cover for your cancer. If you do not declare that you have cancer, then you may find that you are not covered if you require medical treatment abroad, or need to cancel your holiday as a result of your cancer. It is always best to ensure that you have appropriate travel insurance cover for your cancer as medical costs abroad can easily run into thousands of pounds.

Travelling with cancer – getting advice

If you are at all concerned about how your cancer or medication might affect you on holiday, ask your doctor for advice before you book your trip.

The ten most common cancers in the UK are: lung cancer, Colorectal cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, oesophagus cancer, stomach cancer, bladder cancer, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, ovarian cancer, and leukaemia. Goodtogoinsurance.com is proud to be able to offer travel insurance cover for travellers who have, or have had, any of these types of cancer. It's worth remembering that cancellation cover under your travel insurance policy starts from the day you buy it, so you should buy your cancer travel insurance at the same time you book your trip or holiday.

DirectorDanny Palmer, Business Development Manager of Goodtogoinsurance.com says 'We are proud to provide cancer travel insurance to UK residents suffering from cancer who want to travel abroad. Our aim is to enable people with cancer, and those recovering from cancer, to travel with appropriate cancer travel insurance cover every time they go away. Our cancer travel insurance can cover all types of cancer, sometimes even with a terminal prognosis - all you need to do is answer a few simple questions about your cancer and in most cases we can provide an instant quotation for cancer travel insurance.'

“Goodtogoinsurance.com provides fair priced cancer travel insurance policies to UK residents suffering from, or recently recovered from cancer. However, if customers with cancer are concerned about the cost of cancer travel insurance, there are things that they can do to keep the costs down.

For instance, the country you are travelling to can have a big impact on the cost of your cancer travel insurance, particularly if you are going to the USA, this is due to the cost of obtaining emergency medical treatment whilst you are away.

When you are planning a holiday, why not get some quotes for cancer travel insurance, for the countries you are considering to see how the price differs.

Countries to avoid if you want to keep the cost of cancer travel insurance down are; USA, Canada, Carribean and closer to home, Spain is often more expensive than other European countries. You may want to keep this in mind when you are planning a holiday.”
