It seems the politicians are now taking a similar view on the 'scandal of travel insurance' because, according MSN News, shadow transport secretary Theresa Villiers said a Conservative government "would conduct a wholesale review of the rules governing compensation and travel insurance arrangements for air passengers".

Brave words in an election campaign, but the intent seems to be there.

Let's hope an improvement comes, even if it is a two-tier system - 'comprehensive' cover at a price and 'budget' low cost cover.

At least travellers would know what to expect from their insurance and be able to make a value judgment based on plain English, rather than the let downs which have occurred in the past.
