You can compare holiday insurance policies at the AXA travel insurance website. Also you can request a travel insurance quotes and find travel insurance deals at the website. AXA travel insurance can be purchased online from their website www.axa.co.uk/travelinsurance. There is a note on their website announcing their new partnership with Ryanair, Europe’s largest low fare airline as their exclusive travel insurance company replacing Mondial effective August 6, 2009. Current Mondial policy holders are still covered through the end of their policy dates.

On the front page of the AXA website for travel insurance it boldly states a twenty percent (20%) discount for all policies purchased online. I have used United States dollars in previous reviews but AXA prices will be quoted in pounds. For comparison purposes I will use the same criteria I have used in other comparisons for the sample trip to see the pricing we get on the travel insurance quotes from AXA travel insurance. For a true travel insurance comparison you will need to check other companies like Columbus travel insurance, Tesco travel insurance, Boots travel insurance and Post Office travel insurance.

I made an attempt to input the travel information and found that I was unable to do so as I am not a resident or citizen of the UK. While trying to get a quote as a British Citizen I found that a postal code was required to get a quote. I can give you the maximums for coverage in several areas from the AXA website. You can purchase up to three thousand (3000) pounds of trip cancellation or curtailment insurance per person.
