metal_snapper 0 #1 August 30, 2010 Hi ya, I wonder if any of you guys and girls can recomend me a good travel insurance which includes public liability?? I usually use Dogtag for all my adventure sports but for skydiving it doesn't come with public liability. The cost isn't my main concern I need it to pay out is more important to me and it's a recognised company. So if there is a UK company who can cover me for the lot for 10 days in the USA for this is what I'm looking for.

I paid 50 quid for 2 weeks cover, and I can say from experience that they are great when you have to claim! Got me a first class flight home!
