I'll be on holiday when my Annual Multi-Trip policy expires. What do I do?

Travel insurance is designed to cover the full length of your trip, so we can't provide cover for only part of a holiday.

If your Annual Multi-Trip policy is due to expire while you are still away, there are two options:

  • Start your next Annual Multi-Trip policy early. If you plan to renew, we can start the new policy on the day your holiday begins. For example, if your policy ends on 10 November and you are away from 5 to 15 November, the new policy can start on 5 November so the whole holiday is covered. The two policies would overlap for a few days.
  • Cover this holiday with a Single Trip policy. If you don't plan to renew, we can set up a Single Trip policy for this holiday only. Using the same example, it would run from 5 to 15 November, and your annual policy would end as normal.

If you have any questions, call our customer care team on 0330 880 3600 or email enquiries@direct-travel.co.uk.
