Hi, I was diagnosed with PBC last year and am on urso, I have no symptoms and keep well and would like to go abroad on holiday this year. Two companies I've tried to get a quote from have refused me , I also have asthma which is really well controlled. Has anybody got any recommendations for cheap travel insurance ?

Hi. Husband and are retired and travel often. We both have pre-existing conditions so we purchase within the allotted timeframe to qualify for coverage of preexisting conditions. Most larger insurance companies offer this if you buy travel insurance within 3-5 days of your first trip purchase for the travel period.

Recommend you go check for a free quote from Travelguard or other reputable insurance companies for pre-existing condition coverages.

Best wishes for fun and healthy travel.
