Mind The Gap Year's comments regarding the article and Mind The Gap Year Travel Insurance are as follows:-
Existing Medical Conditions
Under our wording, a pre existing medical condition is anything that has happened in the last 12 months regarding your health, have you been to a hospital or consultant, has your medication changed etc. These are automatically excluded and don't have to be disclosed unless you want this exclusion removed.
Dangerous Sports
Virtually all sports are covered if they are incidental and not pre-booked before travelling. Check out General Exclusions in the policy wording on Insurance web page.
Alcohol Consumption
Like other Insurers we take the same view, however our exclusion relating to this only refers to extreme cases.
