Dubai-based flydubai has announced that it will provide passengers with a new multi-risk travel insurance which will be automatically applied to all passengers purchasing a flydubai ticket from December 1.
 
Passengers who purchase a flydubai ticket, through the flydubai website or mobile app, flydubai travel shops, the flydubai Contact Centre or through any flydubai travel partner, will automatically receive the new, multi-risk travel insurance, provided by AIG Travel, at no additional cost.
 
In addition to multi-risk coverage, the insurance also provides Covid-19 coverage. The policy covers both return and one-way trips outside of a passenger’s country of residence.
 
Commenting on the announcement, Hamad Obaidalla, Chief Commercial Officer at flydubai, said: “The safety and wellbeing of our passengers and crew remains our highest priority. Our multi-risk travel insurance will offer passengers more confidence to travel knowing that they will be looked after at every step of their journey. We expect the demand for travel to increase during the upcoming winter holidays season and this will give our passengers greater piece of mind.”
