Grab Philippines and Chubb, the world’s largest publicly traded property and casualty insurer, officially launch Travel Cover – an extensive in-app travel insurance product that will help make Filipinos’ travel more seamless and worry-free.
With both international and domestic travel back in full swing, there is simply no stopping the wanderlust calls. Research group The Economist Intelligence forecasts a 30 percent increase in global tourism arrivals in 2023, following a growth of 60 percent in 2022. However, concurrent with the return of tourism is the rise of travel-related challenges such as flight delays and cancellations, unforeseen medical problems, and last-minute plan disruptions. Dedicated to improving the lives of Filipinos via the use of technology, Grab Philippines is equipping traveling kababayans with insurance coverage – a necessary safety net – to protect them against the unexpected while traveling.
With just a few taps on the Grab superapp, consumers can avail of Travel Cover’s extensive coverage that includes domestic and international medical expenses resulting from an accident or illness; expenses related to untoward incidents like casualties and injury; and expenses from taxing circumstances such as trip changes, lost baggage and personal property; and other travel inconveniences. Travel Cover also entitles consumers to COVID-19-related benefits, ensuring they are protected against unexpected medical costs and journey cancellation, or curtailment caused by the illness
Travel Cover is now available for purchase on the Grab app. Daily deposits for the new Grab insurance policy go as low as PHP 410 for international travel and domestic travel.
