26, September 2014: A major provider of travel insurance for family groups has highlighted the increasing popularity of multi-generational breaks. They report that millions of people are now following the trend of taking breaks with family members of various ages. There are a variety of explanations for this trend, however factors such as family bonding and cost-reduction were deemed as being particularly important.
The vast majority of people questioned claimed that they’d thoroughly enjoyed the experience of travelling with family members. Some travellers claimed they’d found more time to relax while travelling with grandparents and children, and the prospect of sharing child-care responsibilities was a major motivation.
According to statistics, multi-generational groups have taken the opportunity to choose from a wide variety of holiday packages. Some have enjoyed luxurious family breaks in the Caribbean, while others have shared the fun and excitement of family cruises. Travel insurance experts stress that there is a wide range of policies designed to cover travel insurance for family activities in worldwide destinations.
Journalist Teresa Machan says, “Value for money and cruises of shorter duration are attracting younger holidaymakers, including generations of families and children. The sheer variety of distractions on board – from rock climbing and zip-lining to amateur dramatics and cookery schools – means even the most discerning of families is catered for.”
Another travel expert points out the necessity of setting ground-rules to ensure the success of multi-generational holidays. It is important to come to a shared agreement regarding expenditure on accommodation and food. The level of travel insurance for family holidays should also be decided some months prior to the holiday. Both travel and insurance experts agree that all parties will be far more likely to enjoy a pleasurable experience if there is a fair degree of compromise.
Insurance representatives say that it is an unfortunate truth that the chances of holiday mishaps increase in accordance with the size of the family group. However, travel insurance for family guarantees protection against a great range of eventualities. The best policies are designed to safeguard family finances against delayed flights, lost baggage, injuries and illnesses.
