Ski insurance recommendations
 
Hi,

Someone recomended a good ski insurer to me last year but I forgot it :(

Will be skiing in France for one week, I am just looking for a good all
round insurance including off piste. Any recomendations?

Thanks

Kyle

Snowcard... www.snowcard.co.uk

Way better cover and less excess that Dogtag. We've also used their
services "in anger" so to speak after a skiing accident and they were
just excellent at both the emergency assistance and also paying out !

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them...

We have annual multi-trip cover from http://www.direct-travel.co.uk/
Always seem about the most reasonable and cover off-piste too.

Nice to know, 'cos I usually use them.

Another nice thing about their policy is that they explicitly _don't_
exclude theft of skis left unattended outside a mountain restaraunt.
Erm, that's a double negative, but you see what I mean.

Indeed... their FAQ on the website explicitly includes this as covered !
