Just Travel Cover’s ‘Smart Luggage’ shortlisted for national award
Smart Luggage, the UK’s first parametric insurance product for delayed and lost luggage has been shortisted in the 2022 National Insurance awards for ‘Innovative Product of the Year’.
Just Travel Cover and CPP UK launched ‘Smart Luggage’ earlier this year to offer air travellers real-time baggage support. The first-of-its-kind technology solution offers real-time payouts for airline passengers whose checked luggage cannot be located.
The product is included in all of Just Travel Cover’s gold policies, is available to add to any bronze or silver policy, and will be available to buy as a standalone benefit next year.
Smart Luggage allows travellers to have £50 deposited straight into their bank if their luggage is delayed by 30 mins, and a further £500 if the luggage cannot be located in 48 hours*.
Celebrating excellence in the sector, the National Insurance Awards highlight the very best in general insurance provision and management and Just Travel Cover is delighted that Smart Luggage has been shortlisted.
Andrew Jackson, Managing Director at Just Travel Cover said:
“Smart Luggage has gone down very well with travellers who are looking for more protection than ever from their Travel Insurance. Nobody wants to face the inconvenience of missing luggage, but getting an automatic payment to buy those essentials certainly softens the blow. As the world recovers from Covid-19 we continue to strive to develop innovative solutions to provide additional peace of mind for holidaymakers”
Carl Carter, Chief Executive of CPP Group UK added:
We are delighted that the UK’s first parametric delayed and lost luggage insurance product from CPP has been shortlisted for the Innovative Product Award with both the Yorkshire Finance Awards and The National Insurance Awards. The Smart Luggage product has been hugely popular since its launch in August of this year. The product’s success lies in the fact that it identifies and resolves a huge pain point for travellers and gives real-time financial and service support at their time of need not weeks after the event – all made possible through CPP’s innovative technology, with an eye to improving the customer and traveller experience. We are looking forward to both of these award ceremonies in 2022 – and thank Just Travel Cover for being an integral part of this product’s journey and success so far.
The awards ceremony will take place in March 2022.
