Worldwide travel insurance re-launched

AVIATION INSURANCE: Worldwide Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance Plan has been re-launched in Sri Lanka. This insurance scheme is now being arranged in Sri Lanka by John Hancoock Insurance Brokers (Pvt) Ltd in Colombo 3.

"The numbers of Sri Lankans travelling overseas is increasing rapidly and this was the main reason why the UK based International Private Healthcare Limited wanted us to re-launche this produce once again," said Managing Director, John Hancoock Insurance, Roshan Hassen.

He said that already many local business travellers and regular travellers have taken this insurance and there are many more inquiries specially from the travel sector.

One of the main advantages of this insurance policy is that a person could travel any number of times overseas with an annual policy. "Another advantage would be the 10 percent no claim bonus," he said.

"If you travel abroad on business or for pleasure more than once a year, the Worldwide Multi-Trip Travel Insurance Plan can save you money as well as the time, trouble and inconvenience of arranging insurance cover for each and every trip.

For a single premium of as little as $138 for Worldwide cover, regardless of your nationality, you can take as many trips abroad as you wish, upto a maximum stay of 90 days per trip, safe in the knowledge that you have comprehensive cover.

This can save you hundreds of pounds on the typical price of single-trip cover," he said.

Your partner and family can also benefit from the same savings, whenever or wherever they are abroad. "The Worldwide Multi-Trip Travel Insurance Plan also insures you for upto 17 days of Winter Sports Holidays, at no extra cost," he added.

The Worldwide Multi-trip Travel Insurance Plan covers most problems or losses that you may be unfortunate enough to experience.

Apart from the compensation for loss or inconvenience, should you need to claim, the Worldwide Multi-trip Travel Insurance Plan has other benefits, such as Comprehensive Worldwide cover, Single Annual premium, 24 hour Emergency service hot-line and Pre-travel helpline, and a rapid claims settlement.
