The cost of Repatriating a sick or injured person by air ambulance to their home country would seriously affect most family´s life style and may even mean selling the family home to cover the cost! That has to be a compelling reason for not travelling without reliable travel insurance. If you need to be returned to the UK in an emergency it could cost you or your family a fortune. Just take a look at these estimates
- £30-35,000 Air ambulance (Jet) East coast of USA
- £16,000 Air ambulance (Jet) Canaries
- £8,000 Air ambulance (turbo-prop) Balearics
