Thanks for that, Vin, will have a look.

We're going to Alpe D'Huez - looks like lots of blues and greens for me and the kids, and plenty of blacks for hubby, too.

I'm keen to make sure we're properly covered as a friend broke her tibia and fibula when going off-piste last year. Ouch!!

Hi, all! New to this. Have posted this question on chatter forum, too.

Have just booked last-minute family ski holiday, going in a couple of weeks time so keen to get insurance sorted pretty quickly. We went skiing last year for the first time in 20 years and have re-caught the bug!! I am at lower intermediate level and hubby has lots of experience and is v. competent off-piste. However, have found most general winter sports insurance only covers off-piste if with a qualified instructor, and hubby would want to go on his own, or with any mates he makes on holiday. Considered using InsureandGo but have since seen some rubbish reviews about their service.

I'd be really grateful for any recommendations, especially if anyone has had to make any claims, as it is often only when things go wrong that we find out if these companies are any good or not!

From a very excited mum who's determined not to descend into middle-age without a fight!!! :D

Just re-starting skiing hols after 20years, now with kids. I am lower intermediate, but husband has lots of experience and ability to go off-piste independently. Need insurance to cover this, and was considering InsureandGo, but have since seen rubbish reviews of their service. Any recommendations would be very gratefully received, especially from anyone who has had to make a claim and been treated OK by insurers. With most of these things you can never really tell how good/bad they are until the proverbial hits the fan, and by then it's too late to do anything about it!!
