What is Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance?

Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance lets you cover several holidays with one 12-month policy. 

With AllClear, there’s no upper age limit for your annual policy. You can take multiple trips, spending up to 183 days away in total during your policy year. 

Why do you need Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance?

Your next holiday might already be booked, while another is still just an idea. An annual policy covers eligible trips in your chosen region throughout the policy year, so you don’t have to sort separate insurance for each trip.

This is important because unexpected medical costs can soon add up. Recent AllClear claims from last year have reached almost £1 million.

Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance can help with:

  • Medical treatment abroad if an unexpected illness or injury interrupts your holiday, including problems linked to declared and accepted medical conditions
  • Prepaid holiday costs you can’t recover elsewhere if you have to cancel an insured trip for a covered reason
  • Getting you home when medically necessary following a medical emergency while you’re away

Always read the Policy Wording for cover limits, conditions and exclusions.

Benefits

What are the benefits of Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance?

Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance lets you arrange cover for a year of holidays in one go. If you enjoy getting away regularly, it could save you time and offer better value than buying separate policies.

  • One policy for several holidays – Arrange insurance once for eligible trips during your 12-month policy
  • Potential savings across the year – Annual cover may be more cost-effective than separate Single Trip policies
  • Last-minute plans – An extra break can be covered if it meets your policy’s destination and trip limits
  • A choice of travel regions – Choose a region that includes the places you plan to visit throughout the year

With AllClear, you can take an unlimited number of trips, up to 183 days away in total per policy year. Each holiday must stay within your individual trip duration limit.

Why choose AllClear for Annual Travel Insurance?

If you’re looking forward to several holidays, choose a provider that understands your health needs as well as your travel plans. With AllClear, you can benefit from:

  • Specialist medical cover for declared and accepted pre-existing conditions, with over 1,300 conditions covered

  • No upper age limit on Annual Multi-trip policies, so you can keep planning holidays at every age

  • 24/7 emergency medical assistance with an English-speaking helpline when you need help abroad

  • Over 25 years of experience helping people arrange Travel Insurance with medical conditions

  • Award-winning customer service from a team ready to help you understand your cover options

Cover explained

What does AllClear’s Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance cover?

AllClear offers structured cover levels to suit different travel budgets. The three cover levels are Gold, Gold Plus, and Platinum, each providing different cover limits. The right choice depends on where you are travelling, how often you plan to go away, and what level of cover gives you peace of mind during your trips.

Across these levels, benefits include emergency medical expenses, repatriation, cancellation, and lost baggage. Optional add-ons are available.

What’s covered?

  • Emergency medical expenses – This includes the costs of tests, medications and procedures needed to treat an illness or injury. You’ll also be covered for repatriation to bring you safely back to the UK
  • Cancellation and cutting your trip short – Cover for your flight and accommodation costs if you unexpectedly have to cancel before you go, or need to return home early following an emergency
  • Your baggage – Protection against the cost of stolen, damaged or lost luggage and personal possessions. You can also choose to add extra cover for gadgets to your policy
  • Travel delays and missed departure – If your flight is delayed, we’ll compensate you for the time. You’ll also be covered for accommodation and transport costs if you miss your flight
  • Personal liability – Cover for your legal expenses and any liability due if you accidentally injure someone or damage their property while you’re away on holiday

What’s not covered?

  • Trip duration limits – While it doesn’t matter how many holidays you take each year, each trip has a maximum duration depending on your chosen annual policy. Refer to the policy documents for details
  • Undeclared pre-existing conditions – Medical cover is provided only for declared pre-existing conditions on your policy
  • Travel Insurance excess – Most claims will have a travel insurance excess, which is the first part of any claim not covered by the policy

How to choose the right Annual Travel Insurance

Get an annual quote and compare it with the cost of separate Single Trip policies for your planned holidays. Include trips you’re considering later in the year, particularly if they involve different regions, cruises or activities.

Check that your longest holiday fits within the trip limit, including travel days. If you’ve already booked, check when cancellation cover would begin before choosing your policy start date.

Read the Policy Wording before buying, and speak to our team if you’re unsure how your plans fit the cover.

Comparing cover

Annual Multi-trip vs Single Trip Travel Insurance

Not sure whether Annual or Single Trip Travel Insurance is right for you? Here’s a simple comparison to help you quickly understand which option suits your travel habits and budget.

Feature Annual Multi-Trip Single Trip
Number of trips Unlimited trips within 12 months, subject to trip and annual day limits One trip
Best for Several holidays during the year One holiday or a longer stay
Cost Could offer better value for multiple trips Priced for your chosen trip
Convenience Arrange cover once for eligible trips throughout the year Arrange a new policy for each trip

If you take three holidays a year, is Annual or Single Trip Travel Insurance better?

Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance could offer better value for three holidays, but compare quotes for your own plans. The price difference will depend on your destinations, medical history and the cover you need.

Compare one AllClear annual quote with the combined cost of three Single Trip policies, using equivalent cover levels. Check that the annual policy includes every destination and allows enough days for your longest holiday.

If one trip falls outside the annual policy’s limits, compare annual cover for your shorter holidays plus a separate Single Trip policy for the longer stay.

Trip length

How long can Annual Travel Insurance cover you for?

With AllClear, you can take multiple holidays over 12 months and spend up to 183 days away in total.

Your age Destination Maximum days per trip
70 or under All destinations in your chosen region 45 days
71 or over USA, Canada, Mexico or the Caribbean 35 days
71 or over All other destinations in your chosen region 45 days

You can take unlimited trips during your 12-month policy, up to a combined maximum of 183 days away. Each holiday must stay within the trip limit shown on your policy schedule.

Planning a longer stay? Speak to our team before you book to discuss your options, and check your Policy Wording to confirm how long you can travel.

Cover that fits

What should you look for in an Annual Travel Insurance policy?

Consider your entire year of travel, including holidays you haven’t booked yet. If you usually visit Europe but are considering a trip to the USA, make sure your chosen region covers both.

Check the maximum length of each trip, not just the policy’s duration. A policy that runs for 12 months won’t cover you continuously abroad for 12 months. Also look at the total number of days you can spend away across the year.

For cancellation cover, work out your share of the most expensive holiday’s prepaid costs and compare it with the policy limit. Check baggage limits against what you’ll take, including the maximum payout for any one item, and make sure you could afford the excess if you claimed.

Declare your medical conditions and check what happens if your health changes during the year. If you’re travelling as a couple or family, check who can travel separately. Finally, make sure any cruises or activities you’re planning are included or can be added.

Pricing expained

How much does Annual Travel Insurance cost?

Your annual quote covers your travel plans for the next 12 months. The price depends on who’s travelling, their medical history and the protection you choose.

Where you expect to go makes a difference. Cover for European holidays may cost less than a policy that includes the USA, where medical treatment can be expensive. Choose a region that includes all the destinations you’re considering.

Your quote will also reflect:

  • Who needs cover – A policy for you alone will be priced differently from one covering a couple or family

  • Your age and medical conditions – We use each traveller’s details and medical screening answers to calculate the price

  • The protection you select – Your cover level, excess and optional extras affect the premium

To see whether annual cover offers better value, list the holidays you expect to take and compare one annual quote with separate Single-Trip quotes. Check the benefits and trip limits alongside the price, especially if one holiday is longer or further afield than the others.

Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance with medical conditions

Your health is an important part of planning a year of travel. With AllClear, you can arrange Annual Multi-Trip cover that includes your declared and accepted medical conditions, giving you one policy for your insured holidays.

Our medical screening helps us understand your circumstances, including conditions you manage with regular medication. Complete it online or by phone when getting your quote, and tell us about each person who needs cover.

We can consider more than 1,300 medical conditions. These include:

Your health may change between holidays. If you receive a new diagnosis, your medication changes or you need further tests or treatment, contact us promptly so we can explain any effect on your cover before you travel again.

Do you need to declare your medical conditions?

Yes – answer all medical screening questions fully and accurately when arranging your annual policy, including for conditions that are stable or managed with medication. Each person on the policy needs to provide the medical information we ask for.

Your answers help us assess the cover available for your year of travel. If you’re unsure about a diagnosis, medication or treatment, check the details rather than guessing. Incomplete or incorrect information could affect your cover or lead to a claim being rejected.

Keep us informed if your health changes during the policy year, even if you’ve already taken a holiday. Contact us promptly so we can review your cover before you travel again.

Read the Policy Wording for the medical declaration requirements and the changes you need to tell us about.

Find the best Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance for your travels

Annual Multi-trip Insurance may be a more cost-effective option if you plan to take several trips in a year. According to independent research by the Evening Standard, the more you travel every year, the better value an annual policy can be.

  • Choosing your cover area: Choose from UK trips, European destinations, or worldwide cover, including options for USA, Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean.
  • Cost considerations: When determining the price of your policy, factors such as your age, destination, pre-existing conditions, and chosen cover level all play a role. By selecting the appropriate cover and optional extras, you know you’re getting the best value for your needs
  • Cruise cover inclusions: If you’re planning a cruise, make sure you’re covered with our Cruise Cover option. This essential protection can be added to your policy and is automatically included in Platinum policies, providing peace of mind for your cruise travels
  • Optional extras: Enhance your policy with additional cover to suit your preferences. Whether you’re looking for cover against natural disasters, need gadget cover for your electronic devices, or want cover for activities like golf, we have options to tailor your policy to your travel style
  • Payment options: Pay for your Travel Insurance policy using your debit card, credit card or Apple Pay

“Annual Travel Insurance could be just what you need if you go abroad regularly. If you travel more than once a year, an annual policy can save you time and money compared to buying separate cover for each trip. As well as offering unlimited trips to your chosen region for a whole year, policies include all the benefits of Single Trip Travel Insurance, such as cancellation cover, protection for your personal possessions, and cover for travel delays or personal liability.”

Letitia Smith , Travel Insurance expert and Head of Communications

Annual Travel Insurance covers you for multiple trips within 12 months⇞, offering convenience and peace of mind throughout your travels.

This type of insurance includes benefits such as emergency medical expenses, trip cancellation, travel delays and unforeseen circumstances.

However, Annual Travel Insurance does not cover travel outside your chosen region, although you can upgrade your policy at any time.

This depends on how many trips you take each year.

If you’re taking multiple trips within a year, an annual policy can work out cheaper and will save you the hassle of arranging Single Trip Insurance each time you travel.

Money saving expert Martin Lewis recommends buying cover As soon as you book (ASAB). He urges people to buy travel cover as soon as possible as “so many of the things you can claim for can happen before you go on holiday”.

The start date of your Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance policy will be the date your cover begins. This offers you protection leading up to any trip you take and between each trip you take.

Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance can offer better value than a Single Trip policy because it covers multiple trips over a year, rather than just one.

So, if you’re going on several holidays within a year, an Annual Travel Insurance policy could be of better value.

Yes, our annual cover is available for groups of up to 10 people. 

Any adult named on the policy can travel independently as many times as they like throughout the year, without the need for the entire group to go on holiday together.

You can choose the start date of your Annual Travel Insurance, up to 60 days from the date of buy. 

However, you should be aware that there will be no cancellation cover for your trip until the policy begins, so if you want to be fully covered it’s best to start the policy as soon as you’ve booked your holiday.

AllClear policies provide cover for most holiday sports and activities as standard. From hiking and cycling to scuba diving and camel riding. 

Please check the policy documents for the full list. If your chosen sport or activity is not featured, please contact us for more information.

A Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) only provides access to state-provided healthcare within the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland. 

While it offers valuable medical cover during temporary stays abroad, it is not a substitute for comprehensive Travel Insurance. 

Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance provides a wide range of benefits beyond emergency healthcare, including cover for trip cancellations, lost baggage, travel delays, and more, making it essential for complete protection during your travels.
