    Hi,

    I know this was talked to death on gliderpilot.net, but I can't go back and check the archives at the moment...

    Can anyone recommend some travel insurance that will cover gliding activities? I'm planning to fly in the USA in a few weeks.

    Thanks,

    Alastair

    My hubbie is insured through his AmEx card - that covers gliding, as well as scuba and off-piste skiing for all the family and it's included in the annual card fee. You also get to use the airline lounges whilst you're waiting for your flight to the USA :)

    P J Hayman http://www.pjhayman.com do a sports insurance in various categories which _specifically_ includes gliding. You can do one-offs or yearly cover and there are options as to the level of cover. They have a scale of risk and gliding is actually in one of the lower groups.

    I wanted something that had exactly what I wanted detailed in the fine print; there's no point hoping that you'll be covered if it isn't down there in black and white. I can't remember what it cost (I have the yearly worldwide version) but it seemed reasonable as it included the normal elements of travel insurance too...

    >My hubbie is insured through his AmEx card

    Would double check this one - In the policy I have with my card they used to cover gliding then stopped but was able to get an add-on for £30. That ended last year and I am fairly sure that the current policy doesnt cover gliding. Still covers winter sports etc though.
