Poster: A snowHead
|
I'm going to be in the US for just over a fortnight, and will probably get to ski for maybe 4 or 5 days. Adding winter sports to a policy for the whole stay is quite pricey. Does anyone know anywhere I could get (cheap) separate cover for just a few days skiing?

Just had a look at Snowcard, they specifically state they don't do small section in longer trips. Might be worth considering them for the whole trip anyway as you'll need medical cover anyway and getting hit by a car is just as likely as breaking a leg skiing.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

stevo22, a worldwide annual multi trip that includes skiing. You must do other travel in the year?

stevo22, Also check your household contents insurance, if it covers you for luggage/personal items/money to a standard your happy with you can do away with those aspects on your travel insurance and save money that way.
I had a pleasant surprise when I checked my bank account and found I had worldwide insurance cover incl winter sports coverage and off piste with a guide. (nat west mortgage acct)

Thanks guys. It looks like a worldwide multi-trip is the way to go, it just seems a bit silly to pay for cover I don't need. I already have european cover through my bank account, but upgrading that costs more than a new policy.

You'll need to Register first of course.

Check out ihi/BUPA - they used to do medical insurance by the day, and it covered winter sports.

Every year I look for the best annual policy including off piste in the USA, and I always end up buying from Insure and Go. I've had good experience claiming on the policy, too.
