Edelweiss General Insurance joins hands with InterMiles to launch travel insurance

Edelweiss General Insurance (EGI) has declared the launch of Edelweiss Group Domestic Travel Insurance in partnership with InterMiles. The product, which is a free cancellation air travel policy, takes care of all cancellation concerns customers may have, thus allowing them to be stress free in a volatile environment, where travel plans may keep shifting.

The customers, who are booking tickets on InterMiles for traveling across India, can opt for zero cancellation, by paying a nominal amount at the time of booking. The policy is a full proof cover for travelers, since it covers most of the reasons that lead to ticket cancellation.

This policy will also allow the customers to cancel their flights up to 24 hours before departure in case they are unable to fly due to some unavoidable circumstances. All the claims will be settled digitally. Free cancellation allows InterMiles members to get a complete refund on airline cancellation penalty. Members can add the free cancellation policy to their booking.

Shanai Ghosh, ED & CEO, Edelweiss General Insurance, remarked, “Our travel plans sometimes change due to circumstances not under our control and it can end up costing us quite a bit. This hurts especially in current times where people are looking to save all they can. We are excited to partner with InterMiles to help customers plan their travel without any stress. We have integrated our platforms to offer a seamless experience to the customer, especially for claims which is also completely digital. We are consistently looking for opportunities to provide innovative and simple digital solutions to the customers to protect their Health, Lifestyle and other prized possessions.”
