What types of Travel Insurance does Cedar Tree offer?

Cedar Tree offers three levels of travel insurance to choose from. All policies can be purchased for a single trip or annual multi trip cover.

Platinum £15m cover for medical expenses, £7,500 for cancellation or curtailment, £3,000 for baggage (£500 single item limit), £750 gadget cover, £2m for personal liability, £30,000 for legal expenses, £10,000 for personal accident, £400 personal money cover, £1,000 for missed departure and £500 for passport and documents.

Gold £15m cover for medical expenses, £5,000 for cancellation or curtailment, £2,000 for baggage (£300 single item limit), £500 gadget cover, £2m for personal liability, £20,000 for legal expenses, £10,000 for personal accident, £300 personal money cover, £500 for missed departure and £300 for passport and documents.

Silver £15m cover for medical expenses, £3,000 for cancellation or curtailment, £2,000 for baggage (£150 single item limit), £200 gadget cover, £2m for personal liability, £5,000 for legal expenses, £1,000 for personal accident, £300 personal money cover, £150 for delayed departure, £250 for missed departure and £100 for passport and documents.

All policies are underwritten by Axa.

An excess of £50 applies to the Silver and Gold policies, customers have the option to remove that for an extra premium. The platinum policy carries no excess fees.

Many travel insurance companies exclude gadgets so Cedar Tree's gadget limits set it apart from rivals. It also has a gadget extension policy that can be bought as an add-on, the most expensive option gives up to £3,000 of cover with a £1,000 single item limit.

Cedar Tree describes itself as a premium insurer and its cover appears to back that up. It may mean that prices are higher than other insurers with lower cover limits.

Cover for travel disruption, winter sports, natural catastrophe, golf, wedding, cruise and business is available for an extra premium.

Are there restrictions with Cedar Tree travel insurance?

Yes. Customers must be UK residents aged between 18 and 75.

Cover cannot be provided for a trip that has already started or a trip that goes through one of the countries the Foreign and Commonwealth Office has advised against all but essential travel to.

How much does Cedar Tree Travel Insurance cost?

The cost of travel insurance varies widely depending on the age and medical conditions of the person travelling, the duration of the trip and the destination. However, to give you an indication of costs, we’ve obtained the following example quotes from Cedar Tree’s website in July 2017:

  • A woman in her 30s, travelling to Europe for a week: Platinum - £29.25 single trip / £65 annual cover; Gold - £19 single trip / £45 annual cover; Silver - £14.25 single trip / £35 annual cover
  • A couple in their 50s on a worldwide annual policy (including the US, Canada and the Caribbean): Platinum - £178.75 / Gold - £116.75 / Silver - £90.75

Does Cedar Tree cover medical conditions?

Yes, Cedar Tree has dedicated Medical Travel Insurance and covers most medical conditions. All travellers who get a quote from Cedar Tree must go through a medical screening during the quote process (available online and over the phone).

Those with pre-existing conditions receive a quote based on their medical needs.

Does Cedar Tree travel insurance cover over 65s, 70s and 80s?

Insurance is offered with no age-related limitations to eligible travellers up until the age of 75. There are no policies currently available from Cedar Tree to people older than that age limit.

Are discounts available for Cedar Tree travel insurance?

At the time of writing this article, we were not able to find any discounts for Cedar Tree Travel Insurance.
