Where To Go This Winter To Beat The Blues

3rd December 2006

With the nights drawing in and the days becoming seemingly colder and ever shorter,
more Britons than ever will be in search of sunnier climes this winter to beat off the
winter blues. The question is where should they go?

Many thousands of us will head to the usual destinations of The Canaries, Florida,
the Caribbean and Thailand but this winter there are set to be a few new destinations
becoming popular with the more adventurous amongst us. Brazil is set to become
more appealing for the simple fact that it offers good weather, great value for money
and the beaches are some of the best in the world. Although, Brazil is not the only
faraway destination set to be popular this winter, but whether holidaymakers choose
a long or short haul destination, the most important factor on their holiday shopping
list should be having the right level of cover for themselves, their destination and the
activities they wish to experience.

Go Travel Insurance, a leading travel insurance provider, is urging holidaymakers to
make sure that the cover they buy is the right cover and to shop around before they
buy. With so many companies now offering travel insurance, consumers would be
forgiven for getting lost in the maze of policies, levels of cover, premium prices and
the urge just to buy from the same tour operator they booked their holiday with.

Go Travel Insurance recently surveyed 2,000 UK consumers, and asked them what
they rated as the most important influencer when buying travel insurance:

• 47% of consumers are driven by price alone
• 40% of consumers are driven by level of cover

In truth, all these factors are just as important and should all be taken into
consideration.

Go Travel Insurance’s Chief Executive, Christian Young said: “buying travel
insurance based on one factor alone could leave consumers short changed – either
financially or through their level of cover.

Yes, price is important and our single trip and annual policies offer very good value
for money. Our policies provide a full level of cover, better than most other insurers,
as we cover lost baggage as standard where many other firms do not, which may
come as a surprise to many people when they need to make that claim. We also
offer an end to end service, with our claims department, medical screening and call
centre all based at our UK head office so we are here for our customers for claims as
well as sales.”

Go’s Single Trip and Annual Multi Trip policies offer £10 million medical and
repatriation, £2 million Personal Liability, £25,000 Legal Expenses and the expected
Cancellation & Curtailment, Loss of Baggage, Flight Delays, Missed Departure and
more. See gotravelinsurance.co.uk for full policy details.

Go offer a 14 day cancellation period so their customer feel safe in the knowledge
that they can cancel the policy if they needed to.

So the message out to all consumers this winter is ask questions, shop around and
make sure your insurance covers everything you need.

Go safe, Go enjoy, Go Travel Insurance.
