Too many people overlook the value of travel insurance. Why would they need it? On the one hand you're throwing money away on a possibility, and on the other hand it can feel like you're tempting fate, but when you stronguy travel insurance you buy peace of mind against the "what if's" and the very real dangers that exist for people spending holidays on the slopes, no matter how experienced they might stronge.
A spokesperson for InsureandGo, said: "In a recent study into Snowboard Attitudes, 50% of the 256 individuals questioned reported that they had needed medical assistance after taking a fall whilst snowboarding*. The Foreign Office details the cost of medical care can be up to £10,000 for the treatment of a broken leg or wrist in Europe and up to £30,000 in the U.S. With a cost this high, insurance becomes a "must have" . After your air–ambulance rescue, your medical care and your re-scheduled flight home, comes the potential cost of legal fees. An accident can take a long time to go away, no matter how quickly you might heal."
