COPD.& Travel insurance
Hi.
Can any one suggest where to get Travel insurance (to Turkey) to cover Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and a recent hospital admission for pneumonia to be declared as well
for a O.A.P. for a holiday in a few months
Tried a few places Tsb.Saga.Age Concern etc
they don't want to know
or will there be little chance of getting any cover because it's a newly diagnosed condition and the recent hospital admission etc.
Thanks

I did and the first non sponsored link was this http://www.moneysupermarket.com/c/travel-insurance/pre-existing/medical/conditions/
but have a look at the moneysavingexpert.com website, that usually has some hints and tips too.
Bear in mind, cover will be pricey though.
from google. Typed COPD travel insurance and this was one of the choices.

Flying can be problematic with COPD; Oxygen levels are lower on aircraft than on the ground, so check with the Gp / Specialist first before booking.
