✈️ Why You Should ALWAYS Get Travel Insurance — and Why You Should Get It When You Book 💼🌍

Life is unpredictable — and while we hope your trip goes smoothly, sometimes things don’t go to plan.

💡 Here’s why travel insurance isn’t optional — it’s essential:

✅ Cancellation cover – If you need to cancel due to illness, injury, or unforeseen circumstances before you travel, you're protected.
✅ Medical emergencies – A fall, illness, or injury abroad can cost thousands. Insurance ensures you’re not out of pocket.
✅ Lost baggage or delayed flights – It’s not fun, but it happens. With cover, at least you’ll be compensated.
✅ Peace of mind – You’ve invested in your trip. Protect it.

🕒 Why get it at the time of booking?

Because cancellation cover starts the moment you take out the policy. Leave it too late, and you’re not covered for anything that happens before the policy starts.

Too many people assume “it’ll be fine” — only to lose money later. Don’t let that be you!

Let’s make sure your next adventure is protected from the moment you book. 🧳💙

✈️ I like to call myself a travel professional (not a travel agent) — and with over 30 years in the industry, I think I’ve more than earned it!

From being a holiday rep on the Costa Brava to a resort manager in Bulgaria… from Ski Commercial Manager to Product Manager for Florida and the Caribbean… I’ve seen and done it all (well, a lot anyway 😄).

When I decided it was time to work for myself, I searched long and hard for a company that shared my values and commitment to customer service excellence. That’s why I chose to invest in a Travel Counsellors franchise.

As a Travel Counsellor, I run my own business with the full support of a world-class travel company behind me. With a 5⭐️ Trustpilot rating and the highest Net Promoter Score of any travel company in the world (a whopping 96%), it’s clear that customers are always the top priority — just like they are for me.

💡 Did you know a holiday is often your biggest expense after your home? So ask yourself this:

Would you rather trust your hard-earned money with a faceless online travel agent with chatbots and call centres that keep you waiting for two hours…
Or someone selling holidays as a “side hustle,” fitting you in around their busy life and other priorities…

Or would you prefer to work with someone like me — who lives and breathes travel, is passionate about personal service, and is backed by arguably the best travel company in the world?

I think that’s a no-brainer.
