Life is like a predator, don’t let it catch up with you when you’re vulnerable. Holidays are our one chance a year to get away and enjoy the fruits of our labour, but even this comes with risks. Every day we hear horror stories in the news regarding travel nightmares which we always assume will “never happen to us”. Don’t be one of those people. According to the Money Advice Service, the average spend on a holiday is £1,027.00 per person, which is even more reason to protect yourself and your family. Still not convinced? The average cost for medical treatment abroad is £2,040.00 according to the Association of British Insurers, and all emergency expenses including flights, have amounted to an excess of £49,000.

How about losing a bag? It is estimated that there were 24.1 million mishandled bags in 2014, which was an amazing 7 out of every 1000 people. Still think it’s worth the risk? Regency Insurance is here for you.
