According to the Post Office Insurance division spending on travel has remained constant, with no falls in currency or insurance transactions over the last couple of months.
Post Office insurance sales are unchanged while Euro currency sales are actually up compared with the same time last year, this even though the pound has weakened against the Euro in recent months. Figures show the precise change to be 3.2 percent over June and July.
According to the information gained Post Office Insurance customers are heading for the usual holiday spots such as Spain, Greece and France. The flight is not too long and they are pretty much assured great weather.
Travel insurance is an essential part of any journey, though travellers should ensure that they are protected for things they do whilst on holiday warns esure.
Ten percent of people think travel insurance covers them for any situation, which is certainly not the case. Things such as scuba diving, bungee jumping and even riding a motorbike would not be covered should a claim be needed afterwards. Around eight percent of people suffer injuries after such activities so it is good advice from esure to check the policy details.
As an esure spokesman emphasised, suffering even a relatively minor injury can mean a big medical bill and without travel insurance cover those costs would have to be met by the individual.
