Fewer than 1 in 10 Brits buys holiday insurance for staycations

12/08/2009

Research has revealed that the vast majority of Britons holidaying in the UK don't realise that they still need to buy holiday insurance to avoid being left out of pocket.

Most don't even consider buying insurance, even though this would cover them if they needed to cancel the holiday for health reasons or if their luggage was lost or stolen.

Though many people see a staycation as an opportunity to save money, some domestic holidays can cost as much as an overseas trip, which means it's just as important to take out holiday insurance in case you need to cancel.

Those looking to keep costs down don't need to worry about holiday insurance ramping up the cost of their trip. As there is no need to include medical cover, premiums are far lower than for overseas holidays.

Customers with annual or multi-trip holiday insurance will be covered for all domestic trips that include at least 2 nights booked accommodation. Others can buy holiday insurance for UK trips from as little as £4.95 for a 3-day break. For a family of 4 premiums start from just £7.31 with insurewithease.
