Tune Protect Group Berhad has expanded its partnership with online booking platform Airpaz to offer embedded travel insurance solutions across Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines. This expansion follows the successful launch of the offering in Malaysia last year. The partnership aims to make travel insurance more accessible by integrating it into the flight booking journey. As a result, customers can now purchase travel insurance conveniently during the booking process on the Airpaz platform.

The expanded partnership is part of Tune Protect's regional growth strategy to expand its travel insurance footprint across key digital travel ecosystems in Asia. By leveraging its travel expertise and regional partnerships, Tune Protect aims to reach a broader customer base. The offering is supported by Tune Protect Re, which works with regional insurance partners to deliver seamless protection solutions to travellers. These partners include Oona Insurance Indonesia, Krungthai Panich Insurance, and Pioneer Insurance & Surety Corporation.

The integration of travel insurance into the Airpaz platform allows customers to obtain coverage instantly during the booking process. Digital policy issuance, easy access to policy information, and convenient claims support provide a seamless digital-first experience for travellers. This approach caters to the growing demand for convenient and digital-first solutions in the travel industry. As travellers increasingly seek integrated solutions that offer both convenience and peace of mind, this partnership delivers greater value throughout the travel booking journey.

According to Janet Chin, Chief Executive Officer of Tune Protect Re, the expansion into Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines strengthens Tune Protect's regional presence and supports its growth strategy. These markets are important due to their larger and growing traveller populations, strong digital adoption, and increasing demand for travel protection. Through collaborations with trusted partners across the travel ecosystem, Tune Protect remains focused on broadening access to travel protection.

The partnership also reflects Airpaz's commitment to enhancing the overall travel booking experience. Wesley, Chief Partnership Officer of Airpaz, noted that the partnership offers customers an easier and more convenient way to access travel protection directly on their platform. By integrating insurance directly into the Airpaz platform, Tune Protect makes it easier for travellers to access protection when planning their trips, helping them travel with greater confidence and peace of mind.

Customers can purchase travel insurance directly during the flight booking process on the Airpaz website or mobile application. Policies are issued instantly, with coverage details readily available in digital format. The offering is complemented by customer service, digital self-options, and claims support channels designed to assist travellers throughout their journey. This support ensures that customers have a seamless experience when purchasing and managing their travel insurance.

The expanded partnership between Tune Protect and Airpaz is now available across Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines.
