BUPA Travel Services Company details

Why choose BUPA Travel Services?

Thinking about taking a year out to experience your dreams in a land far, far away? Yes? You are not alone! Year on year, more and more people are taking time out from education or the workplace to experience the things that some of us can only dream of.

Worryingly though, it is becoming more and more apparent that a rising number of people leaving the UK will be travelling without adequate cover for their health and possessions. Often this aspect of the trip can be overlooked in all the excitement and people might be unaware of what the consequences might mean for themselves or their loved ones.

At BUPA, we understand that travelling is all about different experiences and the last thing you expect is for things to go wrong when you are away. But as we all know, things can go wrong and it is essential that you have adequate cover in place to ensure your dream trip does not turn into a nightmare.

Did you know that an air ambulance in the USA could cost £35,000? Just treatment for a broken leg in Europe can cost £5,000. That means that if you don’t have sufficient travel insurance, you could be the one picking up the bill should you need medical attention abroad.

For over 30 years BUPA has been providing travel insurance through a mixture of annual and single trip schemes and in June 2005, BUPA Travel Services launched Explorer. Explorer focuses specifically on those travelling for between 3 - 18 months and taking part in more unusual activities such as bungee jumping and elephant riding! This is in addition to the ‘normal’ benefits of a BUPA Travel Services scheme such as medical, cancellation and personal liability cover, to name but a few.

If you do find yourself in a tricky situation, you want the reassurance that someone is going to be there; helping you to feel better. With one of our travel schemes, you will have all the reassurance of being backed by BUPA.

To help you make sure that you aren’t caught out, call BUPA Travel Services on 0800 00 10 22* quoting 2210 or visit www.bupatravel.co.uk and save 5% when you buy online!

*Calls from landlines are free, however, mobile phone providers may charge. Calls may be recorded and may be monitored. Personal lines are open 8.30am - 6pm, Monday to Friday and 9am - 1pm, Saturdays and Public holidays. Business lines are open 9am - 5pm, Monday to Friday.
