Access America Launches QuickTrip Protector(SM)
RICHMOND, Va., Feb. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- According to the Travel Industry Association of America, an increasing number of Americans will enjoy more vacations this year than last, but they are booking closer to their departure date. Access America, a leading travel insurance provider, has developed a new insurance plan to respond to the new way Americans get away: QuickTrip Protector.
QuickTrip is ideal for last-minute travelers who don't need trip cancellation insurance because they are booking close to their departure date, but who do want coverage for:
* Trip interruption, including coverage for terrorism, FAA airport shutdowns & airline bankruptcy * Baggage loss & delay * Emergency medical & dental up to $25,000 * Emergency medical transportation * 24-hour assistance, anywhere in the world.
"The landscape of the travel industry is definitely evolving. People are taking shorter, last-minute trips," said Beth Godlin, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Access America. "With the introduction of QuickTrip, Access America is responding to the changing needs of the marketplace."
QuickTrip is available at travel agencies that sell Access America travel insurance and at www.accessamerica.com.
