Best Western Offers Trip Insurance
PHOENIX, AZ, April 26, 2006. Access America announced a partnership with Best Western International to market trip protection.
Best Western guests booking domestic or international hotel stays have a choice of five Access America travel insurance and assistance plans, which can provide insurance coverage for trip cancellation and interruption, medical emergencies and 24-hour global emergency assistance.
"Access America possesses a keen understanding of our commitment to personalized customer service, as well as the technological resources to deliver a tailored product portfolio to Best Western and our guests," said Dorothy Dowling, Senior Vice President of Marketing for Best Western International.
"With five different insurance plans from which to choose, our customers can get exactly what they need. In addition, due to its extensive experience with Internet booking procedures and one-stop-shopping methodology, Access America will also be able to implement a quick and easy-to-use online purchasing process for our worldwide guests."
"With its vast global operations, Best Western is not a one-size-fits-all client," said Beth Godlin, Senior Vice President of Access America Travel Markets.
"So we developed a range of plans to meet a variety of needs. For example, the new International Hotel Protector has emergency medical and evacuation benefits, while Drive and Stay Protector includes roadside assistance and a vehicle return. We wanted to deliver the right coverage for each customer and travel situation."
