What is haemophilia?

Haemophilia is a rare inherited bleeding disorder where the blood does not clot properly, which can lead to prolonged bleeding after injuries or spontaneous bleeding episodes that can affect people in different ways, depending on the severity of symptoms and how well it is managed. In the UK, around 10,000 people are living with the condition.

It’s important that you discuss your haemophilia with a doctor before travelling. They will need to be satisfied that you are fit to fly with haemophilia and that it is being properly managed.

Most people with haemophilia continue to travel as normal, and with a little planning and proper management of the condition, it can often be done safely and confidently.

Having the right travel insurance in place for haemophilia 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 blood disorder like haemophilia

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

During the quote process, we will ask about any pre-existing medical conditions, including blood disorders. Where it applies, make sure you declare your haemophilia when you take out the policy.

Travel insurance is often still possible for people with haemophilia. What we can offer depends on your diagnosis and how it is managed, and answering the medical declaration accurately helps us bring forward the right cover.
