  IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)

If you are planning to travel to a Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) infected area as designated by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) the following notice applies.

Insurancewide.com's travel insurance provider is unable to provide insurance and would not cover an existing policyholder (an Insured Person) travelling to a country where the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) has advised against travel. In the current climate with the SARS infection this includes Hong Kong.

If an Insured Person travels to a country which is not on the FCO warning list and they were to contract the SARS infection Insurancewide's travel insurance provider would cover all medical costs and arrange repatriation if deemed necessary. The Insured Person should also contact the emergency services immediately.

For Insured Persons booked to travel to an infected area where the FCO have advised against travel, a refund or suitable alternative should be obtainable from the Travel Agent/Tour Operator.

Under the cancellation section of the policy, Insurancewide.com's travel insurance provider does cover the insured if they are prevented from travelling to the intended destination due to Government restriction or epidemic. However, Insurancewide.com's travel insurance provider would not cover any situation if restrictions for the destination country were in place at the time of effecting the policy.

All Together Now

Travelling as a group and need travel insurance? Instead of going to the trouble of arranging individual cover for each and every member of the party, which can be costly and time consuming, why not take out a policy to cover all of you at once?

A group travel policy will give you all complete peace of mind when on your travels - safe in the knowledge that should you encounter any of life's little mishaps - you are well and truly covered!
