Emirates Airline has signed an agreement with Bupa Travel Services to provide travel insurance for its customers. Travellers worldwide will be able to take out Bupa cover when booking their flights on the Emirates website .
The policy, exclusive to Emirates, includes unlimited cover if there is a medical emergency or if a customer needs to be flown back to their home country for treatment. Also available is financial cover if an individual is unable to work due to injury . Credit card theft is covered by the policy and even kennel and cattery fees.
Unlike most other insurance policies, cover can be purchased by almost all nationalities (except residents of USA, Canada and Switzerland ) for a variety of trip durations and for travellers up to the age of 80 years old.
Nigel Hopkins, Emirates' executive vice president, service departments, said: "We are confident we have found the right fit in Bupa Travel Services, and look forward to working with them to deliver and develop more such value-added travel services for our customers around the world."
