We frequently hear that many people still travel overseas without any form of travel insurance. Some with the belief that 'it will never happen to them' and others thinking they will pay themselves when needed, however a recent report from the travel specialist First Assist high light the true cost of needing assistance overseas...
An emergency abroad can be extremely expensive. If you need to be returned to the UK it could cost you thousands of pounds, unless you are adequately insured:
* £35-45,000 - air ambulance from USA’s East coast * £12-16,000 - air ambulance from the Canary Islands * £15-20,000 - scheduled flight, stretcher and Doctor escort from Australia
