Air Caraïbesthe French airline specialising in the Caribbean and French Guiana, is since 2016 group partner AXA Partnersa key player in the assistance and travel insurance sector. Since the partnership was set up, the airline's passengers have already been able to benefit from guarantees in the event of unforeseen circumstances, such as cancellation insurance, trip interruption, repatriation assistance and baggage cover in the event of theft, loss or damage.. However, the two companies have decided tofurther enhance the two insurance formulas to respond to the current or potential health context.
Both insurance packages now include Covid-19 coverwhich allows you to cancel your trip if you contract Covid-19 before departure:
- L'cancellation insurance provides cover from pre-departure to check-in
- L'comprehensive insurance covers customers from start to finish: before their departure, during their stay and until their return. As part of this insurance, medical teleconsultation, which enables you to contact a French doctor 24/7, and cover for the cost of extending your stay are now available. Medical expenses are covered up to 150,000 euros.
In both formulas the period of insurance must be less than or equal to 90 consecutive days.
" We wanted to support the strong recovery in air transport by offering our customers the best possible cover, in an ever-changing health environment. We strive to anticipate their expectations so that we can offer them worry-free travel. "says Edmond Richard, Chief Operating Officer of Air Caraïbes.
" We are delighted to be able to offer Air Caraïbes customers even more reassuring services such as medical teleconsultation. Travellers now have access to a French doctor at any time. "says Frédéric Duhamel, Commercial Director of AXA Partners France.
