Travel Insurance as a Airline pilot
Hi all,
I start my A320 Type rating in Nov with EZY, either on Flexi (if UK based) or Permanent contract (if based in the EU).
I am looking to find out what kind of insurances I should expect to take when I start my first Professional Airline job. I already have life insurance as well as loss of medical insurance, but apart from possibly travel insurance I am not sure what else. Was hoping to get some pointers off those who have a lot more experience.
I've been looking into getting an annual travel insurance to cover me whilst I'm both working and on holiday but am unsure whether to look for a specialist or just search for something online (like insureandgo). I'd hope this would cover any holidays I did manage to afford as well as if anything went wrong after diverting or during a turnaround.
Can anyone at EZY shed some light about whether the Flexi or Perm contracts include any kind of insurance if you had to divert or say you got ill during a turnaround away from base?
I know the answer is probably no but you never know. I guess I was thinking I could possibly be covered if I had an annual travel insurance with all the 'hazardous activities' included.
Sorry to spam the Terms forum, but I haven't got an employee number with EZY yet so can't post there.
Thanks,
aussie
