Nearly half of Brits have admitted to going away uncovered.
Travellers passing through Stansted airport were stopped in their tracks by a woman limping out of arrivals in a full body cast and ski gear to highlight the pitfalls of going away without insurance.
The stunt, which was posted on TikTok, also saw one person construct a makeshift bed out of luggage after missing his flight, while others were spotted looking sheepish at the lost luggage desk wearing a mismatched outfit and a pair of flippers.
The striking ‘Catch Flights, Not Fees’ stunt was designed by Compare the Market to remind Brits of the dangers of chancing it without travel insurance.
According to a new study, nearly half (46 per cent) of Brits say they have travelled without taking out any form of travel insurance for trips abroad.
