When taking out
travel insurance it is important for Brits to consider the level of cover, not just the cost, it has been noted.
Sean Tipton, spokesperson at Abta - the Travel Association, said many cheaper packages will be that cost for a reason, as they will have forfeit some of the areas of cover that more expensive deals provide.
He commented: "That's not definitely always the case but it can be an issue and that is something to bear in mind when you're checking the policy, don't always be driven by price."
According to simonseeks.com, many people who took domestic holidays in 2009 are set to head abroad this year.
Research carried out by the website found 56 per cent of those surveyed are to turn their backs on staycations in 2010 and plan to head for sun, sea and warmer climates.
