Hi all I`ve took the plunge and booked for july 2009.
I booked with thomson in my local town.
My query is that when it came to the insurance part of the holiday, when the agent asked if i wanted their insurance I said no, I`ll get my own.
Now I`ve never thought of this before cause I usually get my insurance a couple of weeks before I go, but the agent said if I do that, then I`m not covered for any cancellation be it on their or my part until i get it next year.
So my question is, where do i get the insurance from, that doesnt invlove Thomsons rip off prices from, that will cover me.
I`ve just been on moneysupermarket.com and put my dates in for the hol but I`m confused as to whether the price theyve quoted today covers me from now or is it just for the holiday dates I`ve inputted ?
Insurance normally covers you for cancellations from the day you buy the policy. Then for sickness, theft, repatriation etc. you will be covered during the dates you are away on holiday.

We normally use the Post Office to buy travel insurance and they have covered us from the day it's bought.
if you look at page 1 of the thread recommended by Bridd it list all those insures that members recommend.. i personally use Netcover direct [not the cheapest but about the best cover you will find] last year recommended by WHICH magazine
