Hi Everyone - I'm just looking for travel insurance to Turkey for the family this year. I paid £17 for the four of last year to Egypt but have just been quoted £300 for this year as I have been diagnosed with MF. Does anyone have any recommendations of where I could try for further quotes? TIA

Hi,

I have PV and have just paid £35 for family of 4 insurance for Cyprus 10 days with All Clear. Website was really easy to use and came up with lots of competitive quotes. Hope this helps.

Thanks Foss - I have been diagnosed with MF so seems to be making a big difference cost wise but will check out All Clear. Thanks for the info.

I have found Colombus Direct Insurance to work out quite reasonably. Best wishes for a super holiday.

Apparently turkey is outside the Europe group therefore your insurance would be in the worldwide Group which is a lot dearer.

I just ask the insurers to exclude any claims which might arise from the condition and the premium is then as for normal risk.

I have been quoted £2700 for two weeks in Canada by Saga. I have MF. Stay Sure would not cover for MF.

I have loads of problems too with travel insurance, because i have varices which are a direct result of my PV but travel companies lump me in the same category as people with alcohol problems.

4 Days in greece this year is going to cost me about £150..
