It's all down to costs, if you've a really cheap holiday and are happy to lose what you've paid/due to pay if things go wrong before travel, then thats the risk.  But either way, definately get insurance for all of you before travel. And make sure you declare all medical for everybody so find that out to be properly covered.

The OP hasn't said where the holiday is so could be UK. If that's the case then travel insurance is less of a necessity as medical repatriation wouldn't be needed etc but you might still want to be covered for cancellation.

Some companies still require you to have travel insurance even for a package based in the UK. I discovered one which does this just recently.
