New research we have published about travel insurance trends shows a significant change in consumer priorities. We asked 1,500 respondents what they would look for in a travel insurance policy, if travelling in 2021.
The most important aspect of travel insurance for consumers looking to travel this year is cancellation due to Covid restrictions (35%), followed closely by medical cover, including Covid cover (20%).
Unfortunately, though, the majority of respondents (42%) said they didn’t plan to travel at all in 2021, so they wouldn’t have any need for travel insurance.
Delays were no longer a major worry for consumers, with only 5.5% of respondents who indicated they’d need travel insurance, stating it was the most important aspect of a travel insurance policy.
