Cheap Travel Insurance is Advisable for UK Residents on 'Staycation'
Post Office reminds UK residents holidaying at home to get Travel Insurance
London, London (PRWEB) June 20, 2009 -- Recent research shows that there has been a 7 per cent increase in the number of UK residents holidaying at home. Worryingly, a whopping 80 per cent have no travel insurance. This may be because holidaymakers are not aware of the benefits or necessity of travel insurance for domestic holidays.
Travel insurance provides cover for a broad range of issues. Cancellation cover is a key aspect of travel insurance that 'staycationers' should consider. Most hotels in the UK charge two-thirds of the holiday cost if there is a cancellation .
Additionally, while the NHS may provide free health care, in the event of an emergency holidaymakers could find themselves forking out a lot of money for something that is not covered by a travel health insurance policy. For example, tourists travelling to the Channel Islands are not covered by national healthcare systems, and will be required to pay for medical treatment.
Equally, if tourists have home insurance it is important to check which - if any - of their possessions are covered while travelling. Travel insurance could provide cover for any items not covered under their home policy.
Cash-strapped holiday makers will be glad to hear that cheap travel insurance is available for as little as £12 , a small price to pay for peace of mind should the unexpected happen while on holiday.
