NOW Travel Insurance are specialists in providing travel insurance for COPD and other medical conditions. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease affects more than 3 million people in the UK today, meaning that COPD travel cover is becoming a more frequent request.
When travelling we recommend that you always carry your regular medication in your hand luggage (see restrictions on liquids, gels and creams) and inform your airline should you require any specific assistance, during your flight, to alleviate your condition i.e. nebulizers or inhalers.
COPD is associated with conditions such as Emphysema and Bronchitis and is a condition which narrows the airways and passages to the lungs, making breathing difficult.
Environmental triggers such as pollen, dust and air pollution are among many factors that contribute to the onset of this condition.
If you are planning a number of trips over the next 12 months, an annual multi-trip policy could save you time and money, enabling unlimited travel during a 12 month period.
Having an annual policy will give you added peace of mind and flexibility knowing you are covered whenever you wish to travel. Annual travel insurance
