lost luggage, sending and receiving emergency messages, and obtaining the latest
worldwide medical alerts are just a free phone call away for travelers or traveling
groups who insure their trip with CSA Travel Protection.
These and other
helpful benefits have joined the worldwide 24-Hour Emergency Assistance Services
included free with three CSA travel insurance plans: CSA VACATION GUARANTEE(r),
CSAWebDirect and CSA Group Guarantee(tm). Pre-trip assistance, translation-service
referrals, and U.S. Embassy and consular referrals join six long-established assistance
services for policyholders: pre-travel advice, medical referrals, and assistance
with emergency cash transfers, lost tickets and passports, and emergency prescription
refills.
"Adding these important services gives consumers even greater
peace of mind before and during their travels," said Claudia Fullerton, Chief
Operating Officer of CSA Travel Protection, a leading worldwide travel insurance
provider. "With a single toll-free or collect phone call from anywhere in
the world, they can reach our assistance provider 24 hours a day, seven days a
week, for immediate aid."
The newly added services provided for
travelers include:
• Lost
Baggage Tracking: Travelers can continue on their vacation while the assistance
provider tracks their lost luggage.
•
Emergency Messaging: The assistance provider provides emergency messaging to and
from the travelers' home and/or family, friends, personal physicians and employers.
• Worldwide Medical Information: Necessary
inoculation and vaccination information, and detailed general health and medical
descriptions of destinations around the world.
