SCTI wins two Canstar Travel Insurance Awards
The company’s CEO said the awards recognise its hard work and commitment during another challenging year
Southern Cross Travel Insurance (SCTI) has announced that it has received two awards at the 2023 Canstar Travel Insurance Awards.
The company won an Outstanding Value – International Travel Insurance Award and an Outstanding Value – Seniors’ Travel Insurance Award.
This is the sixth consecutive win for SCTI in the international travel category and the second consecutive in the senior category.
SCTI CEO Jo McCauley said the awards highlight the organisation’s ongoing commitment to providing exceptional coverage and service to travellers across all demographics. They also recognise the SCTI team’s commitment and hard work providing high-quality travel insurance solutions during another challenging year.
“In January this year, the travel industry in New Zealand had just come out of nearly three years of devastation following the Covid-19 travel restrictions. Immediately we were then faced with the weather events in Auckland and Hawke’s Bay, which caused airports to close, impacting those heading overseas. It has been fantastic to see travel stabilise in the last six months, and we’ve been busy growing our team to support the increasing demand,” she explained.
Canstar New Zealand spokesperson Irene Chapple added: “Southern Cross Travel Insurance is a winner across different categories, due to its high levels of cover with competitive prices. Congratulations to the team for delivering these excellent products to the customer.”
These awards follow SCTI’s recent win at the Reader’s Digest Quality Service Awards 2024.
