Travel Insurance for older people.
So we're all living longer? Great, we can spend more time taking holidays and enjoying our retirement – perhaps not, not if we can't get travel insurance! Take a look at this report about the worrying reduction in travel insurance choices for older people. Is this fair? Comments welcome.

Tip: for older single people thinking of trying a cruise, rather than an ocean cruise look at river cruises where the boat is smaller and the whole feeling more intimate and friendly. But watch out single cabins on these trips are in very short supply, you'll need to book early!

Want somewhere to chat about holidays for older people?
We're just getting going with facebook and have just set up a facebook page for our singles visitors and wondered if our older guest would like the same. Come and join us on our main facebook page and let us know.

DEFINITIONS FOR TOUR OPERATORS WISHING TO BE LISTED:
Apply for a listing >>
The travel-quest seniors/silver surfers section is intended for listing specialist holidays, vacations and tours for older people. This includes over 50's travel packages, over 60's holidays, senior escorted tours, pensioner holidays, seniors coach holidays and cruises. These holidays will either be tours specifically designed for older people (including activity and adventure travel for older people as well as dedicated travel for the less fit and/or infirm) or general tours where special deals and arrangements are made for older travellers. We need to see evidence on the website concerned of the deals available for older people (e.g. reduced prices for pensioners, over 50's reductions, free grandparent places on family holidays, etc.) and/or what special arrangements are made for older people (e.g. dedicated age related travel insurance, no single supplements, assistance for the infirm, etc.).
The directory is set up to promote all businesses offering travel and holidays to the mature market, aiming to promote smaller businesses along with the obvious the big names that otherwise tend to hog the lime-light. We aim to provide visitors with a list that they can use to make comparisons and compare packages and deals as well as discover providers they might have a hard job finding on their own.
