DVT Travel Insurance

Specialist travel and holiday insurance if you have been diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or a blood clot

Travel insurance with a blood clot

It's So Easy can provide travel insurance cover if you have previously suffered with deep vein thrombosis (DVT)


A DVT is a blood clot which normally occurs in the leg and is often first identified by a throbbing pain in the calf or thigh area, with the skin becoming warm and painful to touch. These symptoms could result in the clot breaking loose, which may lead to more serious clots in your lungs or heart. 


Our travel insurance policies can offer cover if you currently have, or have previously been treated for a DVT. It is important that you declare your condition to your travel insurers, even if you are now on precautionary treatment such as blood thinners, so that you are fully covered for anything that could be directly or indirectly related to your condition including cancellation cover or medical treatment abroad. During our medical screening process, we will ask relevant questions about your condition so that we can accurately assess the risk and therefore offer a competitive premium.

DVT travel and holiday insurance

Our main concern is providing you with adequate cover for your personal needs. Regular travel insurance is not usually designed to include cover for pre-existing medical conditions including DVTs, which means that should you require medical attention or need to cancel for any reason that’s directly or indirectly linked to your existing condition, a regular policy may well decline your claim. 

 

If you have recently been diagnosed with a DVT, or perhaps this is your first flight since receiving treatment, we recommend speaking with your GP to ensure you are fit to travel. Walking and keeping on the move is important to keep your blood flowing, especially during a longer flight.
