Jet2 has urged all passengers to carry a paper copy of their travel insurance when jetting off on holiday. The airline shared the advice in a recent message on X, telling travellers: "Take a paper copy of your travel insurance - it's your backup if you lose your phone abroad."
What the document should include
The airline explained the document should include your policy number and your insurer's 24/7 emergency contact details. Millions of households will travel overseas in 2026 to popular destinations including Spain, Greece and Portugal.
Why travel insurance matters
Travel insurance provides protection for unexpected events including natural disasters, medical emergencies, lost baggage, and cancellations. Travellers are warned against buying the cheapest policies and must declare all medical conditions to ensure valid cover.
Venturing abroad without proper insurance could leave you with an eye-watering bill if things go wrong.
