Questions about business travel insurance
Do you cover business travel?
Yes we do. In fact we don't differentiate between business and pleasure. For example: if you buy an annual policy you will be covered to travel for business, for pleasure, on your own or as part of a group. It's all about freedom. If your work involves manual labour such as construction, please contact us to discuss the cover we can provide for you.
Does World First offer all policy types to all destinations?
We provide cover for all sorts of people, going to all sorts of places. Our flexible options are available to you no matter where you are going – as long as the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office isn't advising against travelling to your chosen destination.
Is my mobile phone covered?
Not automatically. But we know it's important on a business trip. Our gadget extension should give you the cover you need and it's easy to add to your policy. Call our customer service team on 0345 90 80 161 to discuss your options.
Are my gadgets covered?
You will probably be taking a tablet or smartphone on your business trip. Our policies don't automatically cover them. But we do offer a gadget extension that's easy to add to your policy and should give you all the cover you need. Call our customer service team on 0345 90 80 161 to find out more.
