Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

What's the difference in cost between the

best cover
and the cheapest that may not cover? Then look at how much that difference makes to the total cost of a 31 day ski trip. Probably less than the cost of a beer a day.

MPI has gone up quite a bit this year but for me it still represents good value for money, less than £2 a day each for 38 days total skiing and not less than 38 other European days. That's with pre-existing health conditions covered, including one that caused me to claim last year.

@Timc, Fair point Dog Tag and MPI fairly similar cover but Dogtag medical questionnaires (and probably ends up with an extra charge) is not as 'sensible' as MPI

I have to renew my insurance in the next couple of weeks. I'm currently with Insure and Go, with the only negative issue being 24 days winter sports.

I've just entered my details into both Insure and Go and MPI for what appears to the the same world wide exc Americas cover (Annual Black on I&G and Excel on MPI) and the difference is large, being £132 and £315. Being over 50 doesn't help on MPI, as it costs £70 extra per year to go from 49 to 50.

Update: I've just checked the MPI T&C's in more detail and the standard policy is limited to 17 days per trip for winter sports, for more than 17 days its another £47.38 Shocked

After being with MPI for the last few years I've just taken out a policy with Asda which is rebadged Insure & Go but a bit cheaper.

Discussion here https://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?t=148923

MPI premiums appear to have gone through the roof and the Asda/I&G cover off piste - and as much as you can make out seem to handle claims OK.

@boredsurfin, If you have BUPA cover, travel insurance is included on and off piste annually.

Really?! Is that standard? And is it with or without a guide? I'm gong to try and change to BUPA for my medical insurance, as my current insurers have royally pi$$ed me off, and it would be a bonus to have travel insurance included.
