American Express travel insurance

American Express has three types of cover to offer: single policy, annual multi-trip that comes in a variety of types depending on the destinations and purposes of travel, and gap cover for travelers.

All policies come with high levels of cover, including medical, baggage, cancellation and more. Throw in 24 hour assistance wherever you are in the world and you can be sure that American Express will help you deal with and cover any problems that arise on your holiday.

American Express let you tailor your travel insurance policy the way you want. So if you require cover for winter or extreme sports, for business travel or you already have cover for your luggage elsewhere and would like it removed from your policy, you can add any of these options so you get the right policy for the right holiday.

If you own a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) you can enjoy an extra discount, and if you do not hold an EHIC, do not worry you'll get excellent travel and health cover with American Express and can still enjoy discounts when you buy online.
