Asian Alliance’s Travel Smart gains market share

Company rewards top travel agents, organises ‘Asian Alliance Travel Trail’

Asian Alliance Insurance’s ‘Travel Smart’ travel policy marks its first year milestone with an impressive 6,000 customers availing themselves of the travel insurance product since its launch in July 2014.

In celebration of the product’s success and in appreciation of their efforts, the external partners (travel agents) who contributed towards it were hosted to the ‘Asian Alliance Travel Trail’ – a ‘Motor Fun Rally’ on 25 July. The rally that was designed to entertain and thrill participants commenced from the Asian Alliance office in Ward Place and concluded at the Jetwing Blue – Negombo, at which 75 top travel agents were hosted to a superb party on the beach.

Asian Alliance Insurance’s travel insurance offers comprehensive cover for travellers from personal accident, personal liability, loss of baggage/passport, hijacking, cancellation of flights and enables reimbursement of medical expenses, among others.
