Brits frozen out of AI deals by Spanish hoteliers
British holidaymakers face missing out on cheaper, all-inclusive deals because Spanish hoteliers have had enough of bogus sickness compensation claims by UK tourists.
Hotels in popular resorts in Spain have reportedly stopped selling the packages through the UK websites of Thomson and Thomas Cook after a surge in claims – but the value deals are still available to German travellers.
Hoteliers made the decision after a more than fourfold increase in the number of Britons claiming compensation for falling sick from food or drink while abroad. The many thousands of cases dwarf the numbers from other countries.
