Saga said it was one of many initiatives aimed at bringing the company back to its "legacy of providing high quality products and services to its customers."

The company lowered its profit forecast in April, warning that the oldest Britons were cutting back on their travel plans due to Brexit's uncertainties. It was also facing pressure on its margins in the insurance sector and reduced its dividend by hitting its shares.
