Specialist travel and holiday insurance if you have been diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

Finding travel insurance that includes cover for COPD can be difficult. Here at It’s So Easy, we specialise in covering pre-existing medical conditions which includes respiratory conditions such as COPD and asthma. Customers can often find further difficulty in obtaining travel insurance when they use more than two inhalers or have required treatment for chest infections or pneumonia in the last 12 months; although most general insurers would decline because of these factors, we will always endeavour to find you a suitable policy.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or COPD is the name for a group of lung conditions that cause breathing difficulties, which includes conditions such as emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Globally it's estimated there are over 251 million cases of COPD. This condition is usually lifelong but can affect everyone differently, therefore we require you to complete a medical screening which allows us to evaluate the risk that your condition presents.
