Flying to Australia

Hi! I’m looking to fly to Australia to see my daughter. I am 58 and had double heart bypass in July last year, with full recovery. I wonder if anyone can recommend a reasonable travel insurance? Many Thanks 🙏

Try a comparison site for travel insurance for those with pre-existing health conditions and go from there. We are all different in terms of risk for health conditions, age, gender,and where we want to go and insurance companies assess that risk differently. For example Staysure often get mentioned on here yet they wouldn't insure me last year whereas Allclear who also are mentioned would insure me. And my experience is that assuming you can find insurance the premiums vary considerably.
