Emirates offer Travel Insurance on line

Friday, 01 May, 2008 0

Emirates Airline has signed an agreement with leading UK-based insurer Bupa Travel Services to offer customers extra peace of mind when they travel.

From today, travellers managing their Emirates flight bookings online via www.emirates.com, would be able to opt for travel insurance protection which has been specially tailored for Emirates customers.

These offers include: unlimited cover in event of a medical emergency, credit card theft, and even kennel and cattery fees. Unlike most other offerings in the market, insurance cover can be purchased by almost all nationalities (except residents of USA, Canada and Switzerland) for various trip durations, and for travellers up to the age of 80.

Nigel Hopkins, Emirates’ Executive Vice President Service Departments said: “Emirates is pleased to partner with Bupa Travel Services to provide our customers with tailored travel insurance options, made conveniently available when they purchase their flights on-line with us.

“Emirates’ customer base span the globe and we needed a high-quality insurance partner with an international reach to match our own. We are confident we have found the right fit in Bupa Travel Services, and look forward to working with them to deliver and develop more such value-added travel services for our customers around the world.”

Steve Flanagan, Commercial Director Bupa UK Membership said: “We are proud to partner with one of the world’s leading airlines.”  “Bupa has worked in consultation with Emirates to develop an exclusive and compelling insurance product that would be conveniently available to its customers around the world. We are confident that our product would prove popular, and we look forward to expanding our product range and relationship with Emirates.”
