Travel Insurance

[Tonish]

You offer Villas, car hire, park tickets, flights.

Why not include travel insurance with a link to a suitable insurer or broker? Obviously a properly chosen, reasonably priced one with ability to take on pre-existing conditions etc? Those of us who have used you for all of the above and found your deals very reasonable would have some confidence in the background work you would do on it.

Could earn you some money and add the final touch to your all round package.

OV did use to have travel insurance once upon a time but I dunno what happened to it. Maybe it wasn't very popular?

It's a good idea in principle Tonish but from personal experience we have found that there doesnt seem to be a "one size fits all" insurance company. It is such an important part of the holiday that it is really where guests do need to check they have found the right company for their needs. Some will be good for more mature travellers, some with pre-existing conditions and some for standard policies. There is the tendency that if guests are offered a name they could just book with them and not really read their terms properly and then come back to OV if they have a problem at a later date because they have made non valid assupmtions.

Many of us have also used many different companies over the years but personally I couldnt say how good any of them are because, touch wood, we have never had a claim yet and that would be the only real test of how good a company is.
