If you plan to fly (a small aeroplane as a pilot)you should ensure you have the correct travel insurance policy for your trip. We can also cover you as a passenger.

We can provide coverage if you depart and return to the UK and fly your private plane. Journey dates and times must be confirmed on the flight schedule. If you cancel a trip, there would be no liabilities around flight costs as the travel insurance only covers prepaid and prebooked flights, and if you are flying your plane, this will not be covered.

When getting Travel Insurance (Flying), you can also select one or more of the following:  

  • Flying (Learning)
  • Flying (Small Airplane as a Passenger Sightseeing Trips Only)
  • Flying (Small Airplane as a Passenger)

Flying a Private Airplane

Flying a Private Aircraft requires the pilot to pay for all expenses, including fuel, airport, and maintenance costs. Many countries have less strict rules for Private Aviation than for Commercial Aviation.

One example perfectly illustrates this is that Private Pilots can execute specific maintenance jobs, but Licensed Technicians may only service Commercial Airplanes.

It is essential to distinguish between Private and Commercial flights, which are based on the purpose of a flight and not on the individual Pilot or Airplane.

In most countries, a commercial pilot, for instance, who flies an Airplane to visit friends or family, is considered to be conducting a private flight.

On the other hand, a Private Pilot could operate a large Aircraft and transport dozens of people but not get paid for it. That flight would be considered private as well.

That being said, everyone who wants to operate an Aircraft, whether Privately or Commercially, must take Flying Courses and succeed in an exam. Everyone needs a Pilot License to fly any Aircraft legally.

We can cover a Commercial Pilot on a single-trip basis through our provider. Adventures

Pre-Existing Medical Conditions

If you have been Flying before and may have had an injury or accident whilst participating in Flying, you must declare this when purchasing a policy.

We have several providers (Adventures) who can offer travel insurance, including Flying if you have a pre-existing medical condition.
