If you’re planning a winter adventure skiing in the French Alps or going snowmobiling under the Northern lights then you will need to add the “Winter Sports” extension to your Travel Insurance.
This can be added to any Travel Insurance policy taken out with Just Travel Cover including single and annual trips. The Winter Sports extension covers you for many Winter Sports including popular activities such as skiing, sledging, snowboarding and snowmobiling.
All Travel Insurance policies at Just Travel Cover come with Covid-19 cover as standard. Covid-19 cover offers your protection against cancellation if you contract Covid-19 before your holiday and cannot travel as well as emergency medical expenses if you contract Covid-19 whilst abroad.
Whilst we do offer no age limit across our Travel Insurance policies, when selecting Winter Sports extension there is a maximum age limit of 75. Cover varies by insurer and some policies contain exclusions. Always check the policy wording for your chosen insurer or call us on 0800 294 2969 for any further advice.
Is Winter Sports extension worth it?
Yes, like any sport a degree of risk is involved. Accidents can happen anytime anywhere and does not discriminate against your level of ability. Medical care abroad can be extremely expensive depending where you are, for example a skiing injury such as a sprained wrist will cost you more on the slopes in America than in Europe due to the higher costs of medical care.
Due to nature of the sports undertaken with a Winter Sports extension policy it is crucial that you have adequate personal liability cover. Personal liability cover won’t just cover you for accidentally colliding with someone (sledge or ski) but for any damage to property that may have occurred. Always check your policy wording for your chosen insurer as cover varies by insurer and some policies contain exclusions. If you require any further assistance with personal liability for Winter Sports you can speak to a member of our dedicated team on 0800 954 2969.
