Can they do this??

A colleague of mine is travelling to Kos in a few weeks time with Th Cook along with 5 other of his 'mates'.

They have all paid for their tickets and last week he recieved a call to say that the tickets were ready to be picked up.

He went into the travel agent and after arriving there was informed that the tickets could not be released as one of the party did not have travel insurance.

Whilst I, in no way condone travelling without insurance; I would always recommend it covering yourself; I cannot see how the airline/package tour company can make it compulsory.

It may be that a group of 18-20 year olds, at loose on a holiday island, are considered a risk but does anyone know the rules and regs on this??
