Cystic Fibrosis Travel Insurance
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that causes thick mucus to build up in the lungs and digestive system, leading to breathing difficulties and digestive problems.
Free Spirit was the first scheme of its type dedicated to those being declined cover elsewhere due to their medical conditions. We are now one of the UK’s largest specialist travel insurance providers for people with medical conditions including cystic fibrosis and disabilities.
We pride ourselves on flexibility and our insurance policy has been designed for people like you. We are confident that we can help you obtain insurance for that extra peace of mind protection!
Affordable Specialist Cystic Fibrosis Travel Insurance
It is very important though to seek confirmation from your doctor or consultant that you are fit to travel prior to booking your holiday, as flying with cystic fibrosis can cause a number of risks.
Have you thought about insuring your travelling companions on the same policy? Whether they have an existing medical condition or not, if they are included on the same Free Spirit policy as you, this will ensure the whole party is covered.
If you had to cancel your holiday due to your cystic fibrosis or associated medical conditions, travelling companions on the same policy would also be covered which may not be the case if they had taken out a separate policy elsewhere.
Why Choose Free Spirit To Cover You?
- Most medical conditions and disabilities covered
- No upper age limit for most destinations on Single Trip and Annual Multi-trip policies
- Choice of several cover options
- Single trips covered up to 115 days (45 days if aged 76 years or over)
- Annual Multi-trip provides cover for any number of trips during the year – travel up to 32 days per trip (Standard and Super cover) and 45 days (Super Duper)

What If I Don’t Insure My Cystic Fibrosis?
Travelling abroad with a serious medical condition could be a worry in the event of a medical emergency. If you do not insure your existing medical conditions, this could leave you open to paying out for expensive medical treatment and hospital accommodation costs and in some countries, this could be thousands of pounds.

Customer reviews
″I thought I would never get travel insurance with my schizophrenia. Then I looked on MINDs website and found a company that dealt with these types of conditions. I thought the website was quick and easy to use and asked some quite pertinent questions about my mental health. In the end the insurance only cost £40. I was very pleased and would certainly use them again.″
