Travel Insurance Advice
Do I really need travel insurance?
The importance of a comprehensive travel insurance policy can never be understated, but don't just take our advice. Here is what the government and others in the industry have to say:
Foreign & Commonwealth Office
The FCO strongly recommends that all travellers abroad take out comprehensive insurance. ... As the case study shows, things can go wrong on holiday. You could fall ill or have an accident; you could have money or luggage stolen; your visit might be cancelled or cut short through injury or illness; your family may need to fly out to be with you if there is a serious incident. All these risks and more can be covered by taking out travel insurance.

Holidays should be a time to enjoy yourself and relax, to escape from the stresses and strains of daily routine. Which is why the simple precaution of buying adequate travel insurance is a worthwhile investment.
