Summary

Just Travel Cover is a specialist travel insurance comparison site offering a range of products, specialising in cover for pre-existing medical conditions with no age limit.

It covers the majority of medical conditions, including cancer, heart conditions and travellers with a terminal diagnosis. Just Travel don’t ask for the names of medication or need a doctor’s certificate, it’s all managed by its own process.

One of the most important things to do before you travel with pre-existing medical conditions, is make sure you’re covered by insurance. That’s for medical cover if you require treatment abroad and all the standard protection you would expect like cancellation and baggage loss.

Just Travel’s service was launched in 2013 by Newton Lee Insurance and is run by a traditional insurance broker, Just Insurance Agents Ltd. The platform is supported by a large panel of travel insurance providers that specialise in travel insurance for medical conditions and older travellers.

Just Travel has a seven-day-a-week telephone-based insurance broking service and an online quote form. Cover includes winter sports and cruises.
