:(Looking to book the China trip in May or Russia in September. Anyone going on either?

What sort of insurance do I need for either of these?

You can buy travel insurance online if you do not want to get one from Just You. Call any insurance company and they will let you know what type of insurance you need - I think for Russia it may be Europe and for China worldwide. Also it also depends what you want out of your insurance - just the basics or more. Usually there are silver, gold and platinum policies - silver the basic and then the benefits go up.

Hi gblady,

My name is paulined and I am going to China in May. I know of at least one other person and maybe another two who are going and three of us are celebrating special birthdays!!!! It should be a good trip and I am really looking forward to it. Hopefully you will decide to join us.

I have got myself insured through my bank. I think Insure and Go are quite good. I used to use them quite a bit.

Hi gblady. I'm going to China in May. Check out the Inspirational China thread for several other people also going.

You need worldwide cover for China, and I think Europe cover for Russia. The simplest thing to do, though probably not the cheapest, would be to buy cover from Just You when you book. Remember to declare any pre-existing medical conditions.

Personally I've purchased an Annual Worldwide policy through my employer's employee-benefits system. Being an annual policy it will also cover me if I decide to make another trip later in the year (which I may do, though not as long or as expensive as China).

Thank you to everyone who replied, I will check with my bank, Barclays, and to you Pauine, hope to see you in May. I will be going thru Gatwick or Heathrow, whichever they use.
