Allianz Travel Insurance

Allianz doesn't sell a plan labeled specifically for older travelers, and that's part of the appeal here: pricing is based on age and trip cost rather than a separate senior underwriting track that asks more medical questions or caps eligibility at a lower age than competitors. OneTrip Prime and Premier raise the medical maximum and add benefits like rental car damage and cancel for any reason as an option, useful for a traveler who wants more certainty around a bigger, less flexible trip.

Pre-existing conditions can be covered if the plan is bought within a set window of the initial trip deposit, generally around two weeks, a detail worth checking carefully since missing that window means an automatic exclusion. Coverage is secondary to any Medicare supplement or other insurance a traveler holds. Distributed through AGA Service Company and backed by Allianz's global scale, it's a reasonably safe default pick for an older traveler who wants a mainstream, well-reviewed plan without shopping through a dozen niche options first.
