🍹✈️ Holiday Season Alert: Did you know that a few drinks on your much-awaited break could actually risk your travel insurance? Yep, it’s true! Insurance pros reveal that if your blood alcohol level is over 0.19 (think four pints of beer or four medium wines), your policy might not have your back. 😮
Grant Winter from Goodtogo explains that while we love a cheeky tipple, insurers aren’t so forgiving. If they think alcohol played a part in an accident or injury, and you’re over their threshold, they might just decline your claim. Even if your policy doesn’t list a specific limit, they often have similar rules tucked away.
Want to play it safe? Here’s the lowdown:
🍷 Keep your drinks moderate. Hot weather? Alcohol can hit harder in the sunshine!
🛫 Pre-flight drinks can be more potent at altitude, increasing your chances of having claims denied for mishaps or lost belongings.
💧 Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Ensure you’re sipping plenty of water to stay at your best.
So, while you’re having fun in the sun or celebrating with bubbles, just remember to balance those cocktail cravings with a bit of caution. Stay savvy and enjoy a worry-free holiday! 🌞🍹
