SINGAPORE – MSIG Singapore has introduced TravelEasy Flex, a new travel insurance plan designed to meet the evolving needs of modern travellers. This launch follows the company’s recent study, which revealed the top priorities for travellers when selecting travel insurance, including coverage for overseas medical expenses, flight delays, lost or stolen luggage, personal accidents, and the option to cancel for any reason. The study also highlighted a growing demand for personalised, budget-friendly insurance options.
To address these preferences, MSIG’s TravelEasy Flex offers a tailored and affordable solution, starting at just $9. The plan is designed with flexibility in mind, allowing travellers to customise their coverage according to their specific needs.
