Equipment Cover
Whether you’ve hired snowboard or ski equipment, or are using your own, if your winter sports gear is damaged your policy will cover the cost to hire alternative equipment so you don't miss out on any fun time on the slopes.
Ski Pack Reimbursement
Not feeling up to the downward slopes? You can claim for unused prepaid passes, lift passes and ski lessons if you get sick, are injured, or if your ski pass is stolen. Snow worries!
Piste closure cover
Has there been an avalanche at your resort, or it’s not safe to ski? Your ski policy will typically cover you to travel to an alternative location or offer compensation if your pre-booked resort is closed. Snow worries :)
Skiing off-piste
Adrenaline snow seekers looking for a real off-piste thrill - make sure you're covered as most ski insurance policies only cover when you remain in resort boundaries with a licenced ski instructor.
