ALLCLEAR TRAVEL INSURANCE TO BE HEADLINE SPONSOR AT TRAVEL CONVENTION
Date published: 30 July 2008ABTA is delighted to announce that AllClear Travel Insurance – the Bishopscourt Group’s flagship brand, has become a Headline Sponsor of the 2008 Travel Convention.
Mark Tanzer, ABTA Chief Executive said: “We are very pleased that AllClear Travel Insurance will be joining Cosmos, Lopesan and Fred.Olsen Cruise Lines as a headline sponsor at the top travel industry event of the year.”
Bishopscourt’s Group MD, Chris Wacey said: “We believe our market-leading product allows medically-impaired travellers, who often cannot get cover elsewhere, to take a holiday with peace of mind. Also, at a time when travel agents are under pressure from all sides because of adverse economic developments and increasing regulatory constraints, AllClear helps to ensure agents don’t lose a sale because they can’t offer full insurance cover to a customer.”
Chris Wacey sees the advantages of having such a high profile. “The Convention will allow us to talk to agents and other travel professionals about how we can best help them. As members of ABTA’s Travel Industry Partner Scheme, we have a great appreciation of the work carried out by ABTA and their innovative and hard-working members over the years.”
He added, “The Travel Convention is invariably well-run and high-profile. As such it will give the AllClear team many opportunities to listen to prominent speakers and lively debate, as well as talk to other delegates.”
