With International Terrorism in the Spotlight, Travel Insurance Can Help Ease Some Fears










(PRWEB) October 8, 2005

PRWEB) October 8, 2005 — With international terrorism rearing its ugly head yet again, travelers are unnerved at the prospect of going away. Another set of terrorist attacks in the island of Bali have put a damper on many travel plans. Sadly, terrorism has become a world-wide concern, but there are options available to help travelers protect themselves and their families. Travel insurance offers a refund of your trip cost in case of a terrorist act in the city that is part of your itinerary.

When it comes to terrorism insurance, there are three main coverages that insure a safe trip: Trip Cancellation, Trip Interruption and Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance.


Insurance companies offer protection up to 100% of your trip cost under coverage of Trip Cancellation, if you need to cancel your trip in case of terrorism. Coverage starts at midnight from your purchase date and covers you up to your date of departure. Travelers should keep in mind that there are many other valid reasons that exist for canceling a trip.

Trip Interruption covers you in the event your trip gets interrupted and you are forced to head back home prematurely. Up to 150% of your total trip cost is protected since unscheduled flights are more expensive than scheduled ones.

Accidental Death and Dismemberment insurance, often known as AD&D, offers coverage in case of an accidental death. Coverage begins at $ 10,000 and can go up to $ 1 million.

Visit http://www.totaltravelinsurance.com/terrorism-insurance.asp for more detailed information.

Alex Velinov, President of Total Travel Insurance, says, “Since 9/11, we have been feeling a little safer domestically. Traveling internationally has been another story. Areas that are frequently visited by Americans such as Europe, Israel and parts of Asia had a string of terrorism attacks. Although, travel insurance is not a perfect solution, several options are available. Insurance will reimburse your trip investment in case of your travels were disrupted or provide medical treatment and evacuation in case you get injured. We even found a company that will insure your life while traveling to world’s hot sports including Afghanistan, Iraq and Israel.”

Business Travel News Ranks Travel Leaders Group First Among Travel Management Companies

Business Travel News Ranks Travel Leaders Group First Among Travel Management Companies












Minneapolis, MN (Vocus) June 10, 2009

In its latest issue, Business Travel News ranks Travel Leaders Group number one among American travel management companies in its Business Travel Survey 2009, an annual compendium. Business Travel News is considered “the voice of authority for corporate travel buyers throughout North America for over 20 years.” The rankings are based on the reported volume* of airline transactions for 2008 verified by the Airlines Reporting Corporation (ARC), which is the premier financial transaction processing and settlement corporation that facilitates the distribution of travel products and related information.

Travel Leaders Group’s reported ARC volume was primarily attributed to its New York-based Tzell Travel Group division, which standing alone would have ranked first on the Business Travel News list. However, added to that was data from Travel Leaders Corporate – another of the Travel Leaders Group companies.

“While the Travel Leaders name may be new, the long and distinguished history of providing outstanding service to all of our valued clients is not new to Tzell or any member of the enterprise,” explained Travel Leaders Group CEO Barry Liben. “I’m particularly thrilled that the hardworking agents who are the core of the Tzell Travel Group would have alone achieved our enterprise’s top ranking, so I salute them for making this distinction possible. We are also truly humbled when we consider that this top ranking directly results from the high level of trust our growing roster of Tzell and Travel Leaders Corporate clientele places in us to deliver exceptional travel management. We’re more committed than ever to providing a level of service and care that’s a departure from the ordinary.”

While Travel Leaders franchisee sales were not included in the Travel Leaders Group data, four Travel Leaders franchisees throughout the United States enjoyed sufficient sales volume to also merit inclusion on the comprehensive survey. They include:


    #35 – Travel Leaders in Colchester, Vermont
    #37 – Travel Leaders in Fort Wayne, Indiana
    #39 – Travel Leaders in Memphis, Tennessee
    #41 – Travel Leaders in Spokane, Washington

With combined wholly-owned and franchised sales of over $ 7.1 billion last year, the relatively new Travel Leaders Group enterprise already ranks as the eighth largest travel company in the United States, as well as among the top five brands with a national retail presence. “Now, we’re pleased to include an important ‘number one’ to that growing list,” added Liben.

Schaumburg (IL)-based Travel Leaders Corporate may be found online at http://www.TravelLeaders.com. New York City-based Tzell Travel Group may be found online at http://www.Tzell.com.

Travel Leaders is transforming travel with a new name that boldly embodies our commitment to our vacation and business travel clients via a progressive approach toward each unique travel experience. Having already assisted millions of travelers, our strong roots – through our beginnings as Carlson Wagonlit Travel Associates (which itself began as Ask Mr. Foster, North America’s first travel agency network established in 1888), TraveLeaders and Tzell Travel Group – have now joined together to form one of the industry’s fastest-growing and robust networks of travel agents.

With Travel Leaders serving as the company’s flagship brand, Travel Leaders Group consists of five divisions:

    Travel Leaders Corporate (David Holyoke, President)
    Travel Leaders Franchise Group (Roger E. Block, CTC, President), includes Travel Leaders, Results! Travel and Custom Destination Marketing Solutions.
    Travel Leaders Leisure Group (Tom Baumann, President), includes All Aboard Travel, CruiseDeals.com, Cruise Holidays, Cruise Specialists, Luxury Travel Network, Partners In Travel, SeaMaster Cruises, SinglesCruise.com and company-owned leisure locations for Travel Leaders
    Connexions (Eric Burdon, President), includes Connexions Loyalty Travel Solutions, Connexions Travel Solutions, Connexions Fulfillment Solutions, Fly4Less.com, Distinctive Departures and Insignia Personalized Products
    Tzell Travel Group (Barry Liben, CEO)

*Business Travel News reports that several mega-agencies declined to participate or release 2008 ARC data.

Alisa Bailey, President and CEO of the Virginia Tourism Corporation made this statement today to announce the new Virginia Presidential Travel Package deals.

“We the people of Virginia, in order to create a more perfect vacation, establish enjoyment, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common good, promote passionate travel, and secure a place of refuge from endless campaign ads for travelers and their families, do ordain and establish these Presidential Travel Packages, to honor Virginia’s presidential homes and status as the Mother of Presidents.”

Squaremouth Names Top Travel Insurance Providers for 2010

Squaremouth Names Top Travel Insurance Providers for 2010











Squaremouth


St Pete Beach, FL (Vocus/PRWEB) February 24, 2011

Squaremouth names Travelex and Travel Insured International as top travel insurance providers for 2010, based on number of policies sold and premium volume sold. Travelex ranked first in number of policies sold, while Travel Insured ranked first in premium volume sold. “These two providers are sharing the number one spot again this year; however, 2011 is shaping up to be very different,” says Chris Harvey, CEO of Squaremouth.com, America’s fasting growing comparison website for travel insurance.

Squaremouth offers its customers a snap shot of the travel insurance industry. Travelers are able to compare policies from multiple companies and choose which policy is best. Since customers are able to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of a policy before a purchase, they will receive better policies for less money. “We have grown 10-fold in the last five years, and we still see consistency in sales distribution,” says Harvey. “Our top five providers have remained fairly constant.”

Travel Insured experienced the most significant increase last year, largely resulting from policy changes on April 28, 2010. “We may see Travel Insured at number one for both categories in 2011,” says Harvey.
