Travel insurance for older person

Ozeire

Guys Does anyone know where travel insurance can be got for an Irish gentleman of 71 years of age to travel to Australia for 35 days?

The person has tried every website known to man and he is either too old or the trip is too long.

Regards

Al

I was having a little bit of trouble finding backpacker style insurance for someone who was the wrong side of 25'ish with longer skiing cover plus additional crazy sports. Give some company a phone call though and they will most likely have a policy, just not taking up space on the website with advertising it.
