Passenger Flying Travel Insurance

What is flying as a passenger in light aircraft?

Flying as a passenger in light aircraft refers to travelling in small, privately operated planes that are not licensed to carry fare-paying passengers. These flights are often used for sightseeing, leisure, or private journeys, offering a unique and more personal flying experience than commercial aviation.

Do I need travel insurance for flying in light aircraft?

Does standard travel insurance cover light aircraft flying?

Often, yes. Declare your condition during the quote process. We'll assess your eligibility and provide guidance. Additional terms may apply depending on your medical history.

Is there a maximum age for flying travel insurance?

Many policies offer cover up to age 70. If you're in good health and regularly active, options are usually still available. Always check the individual provider's terms.
