New horizons - Introducing our refreshed Red Pennant Travel Insurance
For over 50 years, Red Pennant has been the Gold Standard for members venturing across the Channel. As we look ahead to the 2026 touring season, the way we support your overseas adventures is evolving.
To ensure we continue providing the most robust and modern protection, we have refreshed our overseas offering. We are excited to announce a new partnership with specialist provider PJ Hayman for travel insurance.

Our new travel insurance is designed specifically for the unique needs of tourers, whether you are driving your outfit or flying to a destination.
What’s covered:
Red Pennant Travel Insurance is available up to the age of 79. If you are over 80 years please see Extended options section below.

Pre-existing conditions
- Automatic cover for a wide range of pre-existing medical conditions without the need for lengthy screening calls.
Trip protection
- Up to £2.500 for cancellation or curtailment of your holiday if you become ill and are unable to travel.

Extended options
- Specialist cover available for members aged 80 and over, as well as options for winter sports, cruises, longer durations and worldwide cover through PJ Hayman.
What’s not covered:

- Pre-existing medical conditions, unless they are on the accepted conditions list and the words in brackets apply to you.

The policy wording, including all limitations and exclusions that apply, is available here.
A seamless transition
If you currently hold a Red Pennant policy purchased before 30 January 2026, your cover remains fully valid and will be supported by our existing Emergency Assistance Team until your policy expiry date.
