Saga Travel Insurance has introduced extra protection to cover scheduled airline failure.Â
The additional cover is being included as standard to its polices which are aimed at over-50s travellers.
The new cover provides up to £1,500 for each insured person, for the costs of flights paid in advance, or the cost of return flights to the UK if a scheduled airline goes bust.
This cover comes into effect for new Single Trip and Annual policies purchased from last week and annual travel renewals from January 25.
A Saga Group spokesman said: “In today’s uncertain economic climate the savvy independent traveller needs to check if their insurance covers airline failure if they want to travel with confidence in 2009.â€Â
