Smiles launches travel insurance in partnership with SulAmérica
Brazilian company Smiles, which is airline Gol's loyalty programme, has launched travel insurance in partnership with Brazilian insurer SulAmérica
In this new model, Smiles will provide four plans divided by regions – World (for customers destined for North America, Central America, Asia, Africa and Oceania); Latin America; Europe; and Brazil – in addition to the Student package, which covers travel exchange to anywhere in the world. The plans include national and international destinations, as well as varied categories such as Prestige, with wide coverage and benefits; and Compact, that offers basic coverage and cost benefit.
The values of the packages start from R$3 (US$0.53) for 300 miles. The payment can be made via redemption of miles or a credit card, as another alternative to accumulate points.
Offering peace and security to travellers
"We developed this new format in order to offer yet another alternative so that our customers can enjoy their travels with peace and security. We are a complete travel platform and we are developing a series of products and services so that the participant knows that travelling in and outside your home starts here at Smiles,” explained Smiles' Commercial Director of Banks and Retail, Mirelly Gama.
SulAmérica's Superintendent of Partnerships, Gustavo Rosa, added: “The concern with health increased due to the pandemic of the new coronavirus and facilitating access to insurance is very relevant for people. Travelling safely has always been important and, at this moment, it has become fundamental.”
