Default Over 70's travel insurance

Anyone know where I can buy travel insurance for a couple aged 71 & 84 to travel to Oz for a month without it doubling the cost of the holiday? I will be buying it in the UK.

Also, are there any companies that do an annual policy for this age group?

Thanks

Adi

Try the post office insurance. My gran is 83 and flew to Crete last year, she fell and broke her hip and shoulder unfortunately but they were great. Obviously more expensive due to age and you have to declare all medical conditions but I couldn't fault them. You can't just do it on line because of their age you have to speak to someone but it was quite easy, my mum did it all for my Gran on the phone.
Good luck

We have been looking for some travel insurance for the in laws who are in their 70's. These are a few companies we have looked at:

Also try 'Help The Aged '. They do not impose any age limit.
