Whether you're heading to the beaches of Spain, exploring the cities of South-East Asia, or visiting family in the United States, a single trip policy gives you peace of mind at an affordable price.

Who Is Single Trip Insurance For?
Single trip insurance is ideal for anyone taking a one-off holiday or trip. It suits:
- Holiday-makers heading abroad for a week or two
- Business travellers on short overseas trips
- Solo travellers exploring new destinations
- Couples or families booking a one-off holiday
- Anyone who travels less than two or three times a year
If you travel more frequently, consider annual multi-trip insurance for better value.
Single Trip Insurance — FAQs
Single trip policies available through CompassSure cover trips from 1 day up to 365 days, making them suitable for short holidays and extended travels alike.
For the best cover, we recommend purchasing your policy before departure. Some policies may be available after departure, but cancellation cover would not apply to events before the policy start date.
If you travel more than twice a year, an annual multi-trip policy is usually more cost-effective. For one or two trips, a single trip policy offers better value.
