Low-cost holiday insurance

Want holiday insurance that will cover you in case of emergency but won’t break the bank? Direct Line has a range of single trip, annual multi-trip and discoverer (aimed at backpackers) holiday insurance policies that offer first-class service at affordable prices.

At Direct Line we offer you a good deal better on holiday insurance by automatically including those little extras that not everyone does: watches and sunglasses are covered as standard and we operate new-for-old cover on items such as cameras (total valuables limit is £250 and single article limit is £250), allowing you to replace them with the minimum of fuss.

We pride ourselves on being generous with what we cover, so you can try scuba diving, or even a bungee jump. However if you wish to participate in an activity more frequently, whether it’s horse-riding, playing golf or parascending, please tell us before you travel and we will tailor your travel insurance cover accordingly.

Children are covered for independent travel such as school trips and, should you need to make a claim, it can usually be done over the telephone to our UK-based travel claims hotline (there’s also a 24-hour emergency assistance number that you can call from anywhere in the world).
