Going on a last-minute road trip? Don’t leave home without rental car damage protection
August is the perfect time to embark on one last road trip before the summer ends. Rental car agencies offer trip protection, but renters may still forego coverage, relying instead on their personal auto insurance to cover the rental car. However, should an incident occur, filing a claim can increase the rate of the auto insurance or even cause coverage to be dropped. Rental Car Damage Protector, which can be purchased on a single-trip basis, offers up to $35,000 of coverage for collision/loss damage, a 24-hour assistance hotline, online policy modification, and online claim filing and tracking.

ABTA - The Travel Association reveals that around nine million of the adult population (19%) will be taking a holiday during the Olympics, either in the UK or abroad. About 5% of the population are still undecided about taking a break, meaning that over two million people may be tempted to book a last minute holiday. Why are people going on holiday? Almost six out of ten (59%) of those who are taking a holiday said that it was because they always did at this time of year or they just fancied a break. The Olympics fall during the summer school holidays, which is typically one of the most popular times for people to go away. Last weekend, which was the start of the holidays, according to ABTA an estimated two million headed overseas with Spain, Turkey and Greece leading the way as the most popular destinations. The recent run of bad weather has understandably affected holiday choices with 7% of those planning to head abroad citing it as their primary reason for going. Only just over one in ten (11%) of those going away said they were intending to leave to avoid the Olympic hype and crowds.

The 2012 Summer Games in London are expected to draw massive crowds, including millions of spectators, athletes and coaches. Unfortunately, such crowds present a potential target for terrorists. As many prepare to travel to London to watch the events, Squaremouth.com, America's fastest growing travel insurance comparison website, has experienced an increase in questions regarding terrorism coverage. If trip plans are disrupted due to a terrorist attack, could travel insurance help recover losses? According to Squaremouth's Product Manager, Josh Walker, many travel insurance policies include coverage for terrorism. However, he warns, there are stipulations to be aware of. “Many policies will only cover terrorism if an attack occurs in a city specifically listed on a traveler's itinerary,” says Walker. If a traveler’s destination is in the general vicinity of the attack, they may not have a claim.
