Travel Insurance for Vertigo

Travelling with vertigo may require a little more preparation, but for many people it doesn’t mean putting holiday plans on hold. Vertigo is a condition that causes dizziness and a sensation that you or your surroundings are spinning. It affects approximately 1 in 3 people in the UK at some point in their lives. While symptoms can vary, many individuals successfully manage their condition through medication or ongoing care.

Travelling with a medical condition can take a little extra planning, but if your condition is stable there’s often no reason you can’t still enjoy a holiday abroad.

Having the right travel insurance in place can help to cover:

  • Emergency medical treatment if your condition worsens during your trip
  • Hospital stays and related medical expenses abroad
  • Medical repatriation to the UK if further treatment is needed
  • Cancellation costs if you have to cancel your trip for medical reasons

Travel advice for people with a medical condition

  • Plan your activities at a comfortable pace
  • Consider using taxis or public transport to reduce walking distances
  • Take time to rest if pain or stiffness increases
  • Pack any mobility aids you rely on at home

During the quote process, we will ask about any pre-existing medical conditions - if relevant, you may need to declare vertigo on your policy.
