Travel Insurance for Meniere's Disease

Travelling with Meniere's disease may require a little more preparation, but for many people it doesn’t mean putting holiday plans on hold. Meniere's disease is a disorder of the inner ear that can cause vertigo, hearing loss, tinnitus, and a feeling of pressure in the ear. It affects approximately 1 in 1,000 people in the UK. While symptoms can vary, many individuals successfully manage their condition through medication or ongoing care.

With the right preparation, medical guidance, and suitable travel insurance, many people who manage Meniere's disease with medication or supervision continue to travel abroad with confidence.

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 an ear condition

Speak with your doctor before travelling if your condition has recently changed
Keep medication and medical information with you at all times
Avoid situations that may trigger symptoms where possible
Take regular breaks if fatigue or dizziness affects you

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

Many travellers with existing medical conditions can still arrange travel insurance. The level of cover we can offer varies depending on the details of your diagnosis and how your condition is currently managed. Being honest and accurate when completing your medical declaration helps us to bring forward the most suitable cover options.
