11th April 2023 - Author: Kane Wells

Blink Parametric has expanded its partnership with MGA AwayCare to provide a real-time flight disruption solution to US travellers worldwide.

flightAwayCare led the initiative to provide its Flight Delay service to US-based Travel Insured International (TII).

TII will make the AwayCare Flight Delay service, managed by Blink Parametric, available within select plans in the United States.

Carl Carter, CCO at Blink Parametric, commented, “This represents Blink Parametric’s first official launch of our flight disruption solution within the US market.

“To be making this step with our valued partner AwayCare speaks volumes to the strength of our collaboration over the past 12 months.”

Explaining the process, Blink Parametric states that once a traveller registers their flight details, the firm monitors that flight in real time. If a flight delay occurs in connection with a traveller’s registered flight, this service automatically results in the traveller being notified and covered benefits being offered within their plan’s terms.

Ryan Beaulieu, President, AwayCare, said, “Our rollout of the Blink Parametric powered flight disruption solution was both timely and directly relevant to our travel insurance client base. The Blink Parametric flight disruption service has certainly earned its place with AwayCare.”

Isaac Cymrot, Vice President, Sales and Account Management Operations, Travel Insured International, added, “We continue to seek new and innovative ways to enhance our programs in service to our customers, and we strive to help travellers feel confident before, during, and after their trip.

“This new service – available within select plans – aligns with TII’s ongoing commitment to customer satisfaction.”
