Allan Burns, head of Tesco Travel Insurance, comments: “The weather this summer has been fairly miserable, so we wanted to offer our customers a small ray of sunshine by extending our summer sale. We believe it’s a great offer for those customers heading to the slopes later this year or planning a holiday in the sun over the even colder months.”
