Travel Insurance Discounts for the Police Community
A holiday booked and paid for is a lot to put at risk over a cancelled flight, lost luggage or a medical bill abroad. Travel insurance is the small cost that protects the large one. The deals in this section bring travel cover savings together for serving officers, PCSOs, Special Constables, retired officers, police staff and their families.

Cover ranges from single-trip policies for a one-off holiday through to annual multi-trip cover for anyone who travels more than once or twice a year. The right choice depends on how often the year takes you away and where to.
What travel insurance deals are available
Aviva Travel Insurance features here with an online discount for the police community, covering the usual essentials of cancellation, medical expenses, lost or delayed baggage and personal liability. Quotes are handled online, so cover can be arranged in minutes once a trip is booked.

Policies generally split into single-trip cover for one holiday, annual multi-trip cover that runs for twelve months across any number of journeys, and add-ons for specifics such as winter sports, cruises or higher-value gadgets. Anyone planning more than a couple of trips in a year usually finds the annual option works out cheaper than buying single policies each time.
Getting the best value on travel insurance
Buying cover at the point of booking the holiday, rather than just before departure, is the detail most travellers miss. Cancellation cover only protects what it can pay out on while the policy is live, so a policy taken out the week before flying gives no protection across the months between booking and travelling. Arranging it on the day the trip is booked closes that gap.

Matching the policy to the trip keeps the premium sensible. Single-trip cover suits the occasional traveller, while frequent flyers save with annual multi-trip. Declaring any pre-existing medical conditions honestly at the quote stage matters too, since an undeclared condition can invalidate a claim when it counts.
