Third of Brits went without summer travel insurance, finds Sainsbury's

Sainsbury's Travel Insurance has found that 37 per cent of holidaymakers who went on a break this summer did not have travel insurance.

Travellers aged 34 and under were most likely to risk a trip without adequate cover.

The most common reason for not taking out a policy, given by 17 per cent of those questioned, was feeling like they did not need it. A further 17 per cent said that they could not afford it.

Sam Marrs, Sainsbury's Travel Insurance manager, said insurance should be a holiday essential as no one can guarantee a "hiccup-free" trip.

He added the company would "strongly urge winter holidaymakers to purchase a good quality policy before they go, as winter breaks, especially those involving skiing and snowboarding, can often lead to more claims than summer vacations".

The insurance provider found in July that 19 per cent of those surveyed intended to holiday in the UK this year due to financial concerns, with a further 19 per cent unable to afford the cost of a holiday at all.
