A series of branded travel insurance products has been launched by Teletext Holidays . The products will be bookable online and through its analogue and digital TV services.
The company has joined forces with insurance providers Citybond Suretravel and Mondial Assistance to offer customers a range of insurance options. Cover starts from £5.62 for a three day European single trip, with annual multi-trip cover priced from £33.15 per person.
Both the single and annual multi-trip products are available to customers aged up to 85 and include cover, as standard, for business travel, double booking, traffic delays and cancellation of music or sporting events. Also, reduced rates will be offered to customers that book within two weeks of departure and those not requiring baggage and money cover.
“Travel insurance is generally the last of the holiday essentials to be booked before heading off overseas, but now we hope that customers will arrange their travel insurance at the time of booking their trip,” said managing director Matt Cheevers.
