Men take more travel risks than women and buy more trip insurance, survey finds
It's been said that men come from Mars and women, Venus. It looks like they're also headed in different directions when it comes to vacations here on Earth, according to insurer Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection. Women, in general, tend to play it safer when it comes to travel planning in the age of Covid-19, according to the insurer's sixth annual State of Travel Insurance research survey. Six years of travel surveys have demonstrated that women "tend to be more prudent and sensible travelers than men," said Carol Mueller, vice president of strategic marketing at Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection. However, "that doesn't necessarily translate into women buying more travel insurance because they're more prudent," she added.
