World Nomads has announced the launch of a new Annual Multi-Trip (AMT) product in the UK and Ireland following a new strategic underwriting partnership with Collinson.
The new AMT policy allows for multiple trips per year under one policy, providing cost-effective coverage for frequent international and domestic travelers. The product targets World Nomads' core customer base – solo travelers with a passion for adventure and active activities – with coverage for over 150 adventure sports activities under the Standard and Explorer plans. Additionally, there is an increased age limit (up to 69 years) for traveling with adult relatives or friends, and children (under 18) are covered free of charge.
New Services
World Nomads is also introducing additional services for AMT Standard and Explorer plan policyholders, including:
SmartDelay: Offers travellers who experience flight delays of 90 minutes or more access to 1,500+ airport lounges and alternative benefits like spa, sleep pods and restaurant discounts. Air Doctor: Connects travellers to private doctors and medical advice in destinations where public health services are overburdened or unable to treat international travellers. Enhanced Benefits
New benefits across single travel insurance and AMT insurance products include higher coverage limits and enhanced benefits for trip cancellation or delay, emergency medical expenses, personal baggage and personal liability, helping travelers better protect against a wider range of travel-related issues.
Jonathan Frankham, general manager UK and Europe at World Nomads, said: “Our research shows that the majority of travellers in the UK and Ireland (65%) prioritise insurance that covers their year-round adventures, which is why we've expanded our offering to cover even more adventure activities.”
Greg Lawson, head of travel insurance at Collinson, added: “Both Collinson and World Nomads are well-established brands with travellers around the world. Our collaboration in developing AMT products that deliver what today's travellers want from their travel experience and insurance demonstrates our commitment to providing fair value, flexibility and choice to consumers.”
Collinson won Travel and Health Insurer of the Year at the 2023 ITIJ Awards in November last year.
