Respiratory Medical Conditions

Travelling with respiratory conditions, such as asthma, COPD, or bronchiolitis, can be challenging due to environmental changes, varying air quality, and potential triggers like allergens or altitude. Managing medications like inhalers and avoiding triggers are key to staying healthy while on the move.

Thankfully, travel insurance can ease some of the stress by covering unexpected medical needs or emergencies during your trip. With proper planning and the right coverage, you can focus on enjoying your journey, knowing that you're protected if any respiratory issues arise while traveling. This way, you can breathe easier and travel more confidently.

These are just some of the respiratory conditions and disorders we can cover:

    • Respiratory Tract Infections
    • Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)
    • Silicosis

Don’t worry if your condition is not listed above - we cover plenty more medical conditions.
* Please note that cover will vary depending on individual medical screenings.
