The announcement follows a global travel survey, conducted by Momentive.ai and commissioned by Cover Genius, that shows 45% of travelers would prefer to buy protection from their travel provider, agent or airline again rather than through other sources such as credit cards, which had a post-claim NPS (Net Promoter Score) of -34, a significantly low score in comparison to industry benchmarks. The primary reason for their intention to switch is convenience.
“During the pandemic, traditional insurers went missing and travelers were left with policies that didn’t protect them in their time of need. It’s time to modernize travel insurance, and our partnership with Turkish Airlines brings embedded protection with easy-to-understand policies and instant claims payments to millions of global passengers, so they can book their next trip with confidence,” ” said Angus McDonald, CEO and co-founder of Cover Genius.
