Travel insurance "vital" for holidaymakers

Britons are being encouraged to consider taking on a comprehensive travel insurance package no matter how near to home they intend to head to.

Research from insurer Direct Line indicates that more Britons than ever (139 million) are expected to be taking their holidays in their home country in the next 20 years.

Several factors are expected to drive the situation, including new optimism about British weather, cited by almost a third of holidaymakers.

National pride appears to be the main motivating factor, with almost two-thirds enjoying the opportunity to see their own country.

Chris Price, business manager at Direct Line, said that while it was pleasing to see UK holidays seeing a "major resurgence", Britons nonetheless had to be alive to the necessity to protect themselves against any eventuality.

"[Direct Line] Travel Insurance is just as vital to have on a UK holiday to cover unforeseen circumstances such as cancellation of a trip or loss of personal possessions," he said.
