Welcome to This Is Money Podcast in partnership with NS&I. I'm your host, Georgie Frost,

and alongside editor Simon Lambert and I today is Personal Finance Editor Rachel Rickard Strauss.

And today, we're going on holiday. Don't worry, loyal podcast fans. Sadly for us, we aren't really

going anywhere. But we are dedicating this week's show for those lucky among you who are.

And even if that's not you, there's some pretty useful stuff coming up for when you do go away.

From your pre-travel arrangements, travel insurance and holiday money to when you land abroad,

paying the right way, and touching down back home again whenever that may be.

So seats and tray tables back to the upright position, seat belts on and notepads at the ready.

Don't forget you to stay up to date with all the latest breaking money news.

were looking at it at exactly the same time as you, after all. You most certainly haven't

bought your holiday money at the airport and have feeling pretty smug right now. But one thing

is missing. One thing you probably should have done

at the same time as booking your holiday, but millions of us forget or think we just don't need to.

Heck, we even e-hick, whatever that is, don't we? I'm of course talking about travel insurance.

A very warm welcome to you both. We would of course here immediately book our travel insurance. A very warm welcome to you both. We would of course here immediately book
