1time Passengers Enjoy New Travel Insurance Service

March 21 - Passengers travelling on the 1time airline will be pleased to note that the company is offering a new, seamless travel insurance product.

The travel insurance policy has been designed by ACE insurance, and allows passengers to enjoy the service while they are booking their ticket online.

"Our commitment is to provide 'More Nice. Less Price' services to your 1time experience, without adding cost to the bottom line, thereby keeping the price of tickets low," said Anya Potgieter the marketing manager for 1time.

"Therefore, we like to give our passengers the option of choosing what we call 'Bells and Whistles' (valuable services which some people want to add to their booking, but which others choose to leave out). Choice means that you pay for your own extras and added cost to other passengers who don't want the extras, is limited."

Taking out the new travel insurance policy is incredibly easy and can be done through the Bells and Whistles section presented to players when they book their tickets.

Travel insurance is available for an additional R25 per leg of journey and this can be taken out without the fuss involved of filling in forms.

"We live in an age of convenience," noted the Consumer Lines Manager at ACE Insurance, Ross Waterford. "Booking flights has become very straight forward, so we wanted to make it equally easy to add your insurance to the booking. That's why it is a 1click option for the 1time customer, with everything else being taken care of behind the scenes."

Personal belongings insurance of up to R10,000 can be taken out, while trip delays can be covered for up to R3,000.
