Caravan accessories owners 'must check travel insurance terms'

Posted by Freddy Morton


accessories for your campervan owners travelling overseas should make sure that their travel insurance policy protects them in case of a natural disaster, an expert has advised.

 

Sean Tipton, senior press officer at ABTA – The Travel Association, has highlighted the fact that those who are not travelling as part of a package policy are particularly cautious about this.


He advised these travellers to check the terms and conditions of their policy carefully to see what circumstances will be covered and which are still outside the scope of the cover.

 

"It's more of an issue for the simple reason that many more people are making their own arrangements rather than booking packages," he explained.

 

Mr Tipton said that those taking a package break have their insurance taken care of by their tour operator but that this protection is not there for those on caravan breaks they have organised themselves.

 

Earlier this month, a spokeswoman for the National Caravan Council advised those with accessories for your campervan to make sure their vehicle is insured through the winter months, even when it is off road.
