advice needed re travel and health insurance
Hi everyone,
our flights are booked for 28th Nov, so I am just finalising everything now. Two things I haven't got sorted are travel insurance and health insurance for when we arrive. Any recommendations ? A well known bank that I work for got it's black horse to quote me £80 for 2 days travel cover ! And BUPA Int quoted me £144 cheapest monthly figure going up to £250 for health insurance. Who did you arrange cover with ?
Thanks

Good idea to wait until you get here before worrying about the health insurance too.
