DC going to Europe with friends for 4 days. Is 17. Hitting a blank on travel insurance - can anyone help? Thank you

Have you tried a comparison website. Just looked on Confused.com and it's come up with 13 policies.

I usually use Holiday Extras - just did it for DC1, for a week's holiday. I added gadget cover, and it was just over £33. (That included a declaration about his depression/anxiety and relevant medications)

... but he is considerably older than 17, so I'm guessing that's what seems to be proving an issue?

Thanks all. Holiday Extras did an under 18. The big insurers didn’t, but sorted
