Journeys Travel Insurance Announce Partnership with The Global Travel Group
London, UK (PRWEB) July 29, 2007 -- Journeys Travel Insurance, the parent company behind insuremore.co.uk is pleased to announce they have been appointed by The Global Travel Group as their preferred supplier for worldwide travel insurance. The addition of The Global Travel Group business alongside that of other consortiums including Worldchoice and Elite Travel Group (Formally Midconsort Elite) makes them one of the leading providers of worldwide travel insurance within the market.
The Global Travel Group was impressed with the daily rate concept, where customers only pay for the exact amount of days they travel, the Extranet booking system, which was developed in-house, and the online claims facility, which allows customers to submit web travel insurance claims and receive an instant decision.
Journeys' Managing Director, Patrick Chong believes the international travel insurance company is becoming attractive to travel agency groups, because the package they offer to travel agents is competitive in price, cover and relevance to customers: "The quality product and services we offer was attractive to The Global Travel Group. Our Extranet in particular together with the online claims proves time and time again to be one of the major highlights to the package we offer. We look forward to a long and prosperous relationship with The Global Travel Group."
Mr Chong added that the automatic inclusion of terrorism insurance as part of their coverage is also a factor in the company's growth, and has done much to attract new customers to their consumer site Insuremore (http://www.insuremore.co.uk). Journeys introduced the Acts of Terrorism cover under the Cancellation, Curtailment and Medical sections of their policies because they recognised that cover of this type was becoming increasingly important in today's society. "We noticed a gap in the market in relation to terrorism insurance. Simply no providers were covering for Act's of Terrorism and both agents and consumers were crying out for us not to exclude," Mr Chong explained. "So 18 months ago we decided to include cover under our cancellation, curtailment and medical expenses sections of the policies. We were the first worldwide travel insurance providers to do so and remain the only one to this day. The results have been great and we've received some excellent feedback from our clients."
This is a culmination of recent success for Journeys Travel Insurance, having won a British Travel Award for Best Innovation for online claims and Best Travel Insurance Provider at this year's Globe Awards.

Travel Insurance And Kenya?s Election ? Your Rights
The recent Kenya elections have led to huge fallout in the country and beyond. When it was announced that President Mwai Kibaki had won the election by just 230,000 votes (out of 10,000,000 constituents) widespread political fury spread across the country ? and violence broke out. Subsequently, all travel to the country was advised against, and a lot of people needed to claim on their global travel insurance, which was confusing given the unusual circumstances.
