Flight booking platform Airpaz’s customers in Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines will be offered travel insurance from Cover Genius under a new partnership.  

The embedded insurance group will offer cover for emergency medical costs, flight delays, cancellations due to illness and jury duty, and more.  

VP of strategic partnerships Asia-Pacific William Snell says Cover Genius technology has been integrated with Jakarta-based Airpaz’s online platform to offer more than 3 million customers a convenient, digital claims experience.

“We’re thrilled to be able to provide some peace of mind for Airpaz customers and their families,” he said.

International arrivals are up 33% since last year across the Asia-Pacific region, and Cover Genius says to “expect delays, cancellations and lost bags” over the holiday period.
