About Visicover's Helicopter Insurance

Whether you just enjoy touring your home country or exploring further afield, getting the right type of helicopter insurance is important.

Not everybody’s insurance requirements are the same, so unlike some policies which charge you for cover whether you need it or not, at Visicover we believe you should only pay for the cover you want.

Our award winning helicopter insurance is designed to be flexible, letting you tailor your cover to your precise wishes. Among the options available are:

Aircraft Loss or Damage
Up to £2 million cover for loss or damage to your helicopter, subject to certain specific exclusions. *  
Betterment
No deduction for time used when replacing parts with specified ‘overhaul life‘, subject to certain specific exclusions. *

About Visicover's Service

Visicover is a unique service that not only enables you to buy your helicopter insurance online but to also amend it online whenever you want. This applies to just about all aspects of your policy, including updating your values insured, changing most cover options, redefining your permitted uses, amending who may pilot the helicopter, selecting different payment methods or even changing the aircraft insured if you buy a different one.

The ability to update your policy as your requirements change may reduce your premium by removing cover you no longer need. In addition to this flexibility we offer:

Interest Free Instalments
Pay your full premium when you arrange cover or pay a 30% deposit and spread the balance of your premium over 8 monthly instalments at no additional charge (0% Apr). Note, if you are paying by instalments and have a claim, the balance of the years premium becomes payable immediately.  
Up to 20% No Claims Discount
Earn a discount for each claim free year your helicopter insurance is in force up to a maximum of 20%. A 10% introductory discount is available if you are claim free but have not held insurance in your own name.  
24-Hour Claims Hotline
A 24-Hour claims hotline is available so help is on hand when you most need it.

In addition to helicopter insurance we can cater for a wide range of other aircraft types. Please click below for details of the cover options available for different aircraft:
