TripInsurance.com has launched a new website that it says is designed to help travelers find the trip insurance coverage that ideally suits their travel needs and give them more support while they are on the road. The new website now provides an easy way to compare travel insurance coverage, save money and buy the right coverage. At the same time, it would appear to eliminate travel agents in the equation, since TripInsurance.com says it can offer lower prices by eliminating “middlemen.”

The new TripInsurance.com features improved, easier-to-understand quote results that simplify the comparison of insurance plan options.  TripInsurance.com provides side-by-side comparisons of plans grouped by Good, Better and Best options. Options include a professional review of each plan that lists the pros and cons for each coverage package as well as comparative pricing.

A popup window provides instant details about each option, including trip cancellation coverage, trip interruption coverage, cancel for any reason, medical expense coverage, medical evacuation coverage, non-medical evacuation coverage, accidental death and dismemberment, and more. In addition, instant price quotes are provided based on basic criteria, such as age, dates of travel, and the state of residence.

“Buying travel insurance was too complex, so we decided to simplify the process,” said Dan Skilken, CEO and founder of TripInsurance.com. “By grouping our plans based on the coverage categories of Good, Better and Best, we empower our customers by giving them a better understanding of their options and the associated costs. We are the only comparison website that lets you file your claims online on our website, and we have enhanced all our customer support facilities and documentation to make it easier to get help before, during and after your trip.”

TripInsurance.com offers exclusive products from the leading travel insurance companies at consumer direct prices. By eliminating middlemen TripInsurance.com can pass the savings directly on to the consumer. On average, TripInsurance.com claims travelers can save 40 percent or more on comparable travel insurance coverage when buying through the website.
