TIP: The cheapest policy doesn't always mean it is the right policy for you. Make sure you are aware of any excesses and if you have pre-existing medical conditions make sure you have suitable cover.
Senior travel insurance providers
The good news is senior travel insurance is becoming more competitive, which is helping to drive down the price. However, we recommend before purchasing a policy you are aware of what you're covered for and any excess you may have to pay in the event of making a claim. Just because it's the cheapest policy it doesn't mean it's the right travel insurance cover for you.

Travel tips for the over 50's - European Travel
If travelling through Europe you should do two things.
Firstly, get a senior travel insurance quote from EHIC Plus.
Secondly, make sure you have applied for and received your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), which replaces E111.
EHIC is free and being a UK resident you're entitled to medical treatment that becomes necessary, at reduced cost or sometimes free, when temporarily visiting a European Union (EU) country, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland.
