No hassle No problems with Saga at all. Easy to deal with. Slightly pricier than expected. No claim so can't comment regarding claims or disputes. Reviewed on: 8th February 2026

Suits our needs

5
Have had travel ins with Saga for a few years now. Husband had open heart surgery in 2017 and both have other medical conditions but Saga insurance gave us the cover we needed to take a holiday in Australia and New Zealand at the end of that year ‘without breaking the bank’!

Travel insurance

My husband is over 65 and this meant we had to change our insurers and chose SAGA. We have found them really helpful and we feel secure travelling with their cover. Reviewed on: 12th September 2021

Simple to organise, reasonable cover for single trip and some covid cover.

5
Previously had separate individual annual policies but due to covid this time only taken single joint policy for upcoming trip to use credit/rearranged from last year's cancelled trip. as no other travel booked, only taken out single policy as hopenext year if travel resumes, premiums may be more reasonable if covid then more manageable. overall easy to navigate website, arrange cover and documents sent immediately.
