Bladder Cancer Travel Insurance
Bladder cancer is a type of cancer that originates in the bladder's lining, leading to symptoms such as blood in urine, frequent urination, and pelvic pain
To ensure you get the best cover for your medical needs, look for a specialist insurance provider as they will understand your situation. Free Spirit can offer you a bespoke medical screening and a dedicated cancer travel insurance policy which can cover even rare bladder cancers.
Important Reasons For Insuring Your Medical Condition
According to Macmillan Cancer Support, there are 10,000 people diagnosed with bladder cancer every year in the UK. Many sufferers carry on living full and active lives after their diagnosis, and this includes travelling abroad.
Obtaining a travel insurance policy to cover bladder cancer isn’t impossible; you just need to contact a specialist travel insurance provider. Free Spirit understands the difficulties of trying to find affordable travel insurance after a cancer diagnosis and we have created a dedicated insurance policy which covers travelling with any type of bladder cancer for example:
- Transitional cell bladder cancer (TCC)
- Carcinoma in situ (CIS)
- Papillary bladder cancer
- Squamous cell bladder cancer
The last thing you want is to purchase a standard travel policy only to find it doesn’t cover your medical condition or the things you need. If however you have declared and covered all of your medical conditions with a specialist travel insurance provider like Free Spirit, then any medical emergency relating directly to your declared medical conditions should be covered.

Consequences of not covering your medical conditions
If you choose not to buy travel insurance and you had to cancel your holiday because of your bladder cancer, how would you feel if you were left out of pocket and had no insurance cover in place to claim for your pre-paid holiday costs?
Family, friends and carers travelling with you should be added to your policy so they too can claim if you needed to cancel your holiday because of your medical condition, or if it had to be cut short while away because you became unwell.
Free Spirit ‘Super Duper’ level of cover has a 5 Star Rating
from Defaqto for both Single Trip and Annual Multi-trip travel insurance. This recognises that it is one of the highest quality offerings in the market.
Top Tips For Buying Insurance For Travelling With Bladder Cancer
- Buy bladder holiday insurance through a dedicated travel insurance provider as these are specially designed for people like you to cover your specific medical condition.
- Consider changing your destination to Europe rather than the USA, Canada or the Caribbean. Medical costs and repatriation can be very expensive in these areas of the world so if you do go, be prepared for slightly higher premiums.
- Don’t just look to see if you are covered for emergency medical expenses, what about cancellation costs or your personal belongings. In the event you lose your prescribed cancer medication, can you claim for replacing them?
- Some standard policies may offer cheap prices initially but the excess may catch you out! Always read the small print just to make sure your excess isn’t more than the cost of the insurance.
