Best insurance provider ...

[Wuxiapian]

for skiing holiday?

Flying with EasyJet to Geneva, but their cover doesn't cover for wintersports.

Just wondering if/what cover any of you could recommend?

Much thanks in advance.

I tend to use one of the comparison sites and shop around. The Post Office always give a good deal.

I always go with Columbus who are underwritten by Lloyds. I was in the US last season and an English chap in my hotel bashed himself up pretty badly - he had absolutely no quibbles with the insurance company wrt him getting to the doctor/re-scheduling his flight home early.

Sorry, I meant he too was with Columbus/Lloyds.

If you do a summer holiday as well, it's usually cheaper to get an annual policy with wintersports cover.

But really depends on what your requirements are. I'm looking for a decent (annual) policy at the moment are current favourite is Direct Travel.
