Before you embark on your holiday, take a few minutes to read the fine print on your airline ticket, car rental contract, holiday rental contract - or any other contract the travel industry pushes in front of you. It's so frustrating that travellers, and at least one travel insurance company, are doing something about it. This is particularly true when buying products for which you have many options, such as travel insurance or holiday rentals. Squaremouth estimates that fewer than 1 per cent of travellers who buy travel insurance read all of their policy information. "I always fully read contracts before signing to ensure I know what is covered and what is not," she adds.
