you would wonder where age discrimination comes in?. why are insurance company's exempt how can they get away with claiming you are different at 66 then you were a 55 and 364 days.
the answer is Poli-ticks dont need insurance cover.

Our travel insurance is with Laya, also insured with them for medical....but doesn’t have to be same as long as you have some medical cover.
We had worldwide first year as we went to NZ for 5 weeks, next year slightly less as we asked for Europe only and still 65.
This year not sure if price went up on age. I think we can go for 45 days (at one time)....why that matters I don’t know
I do remember a friend commenting on “66”, but I think it was to do with how long away. One trip was before and another trip after her 66th birthday.

Wait until you reach 70 and you’ll know what discrimination is.
