The travel agent always tries to sell us holiday insurance. How do I handle this situation?

Always have your travel insurance policy to hand when booking a holiday or travel. They're only doing their job in trying to sell their favourite policy, and they have to make sure you have adequate insurance cover. Showing them our policy – which offers much wider cover than most – will solve the problem. Many travel agencies insist on you signing to declare that you already have adequate insurance, and need to take note of your policy number – so have it to hand as it could save you some time.
