A smarter travel checklist for families exploring the world this holiday season
Holiday travel is exciting, but even the best-planned family trip can be disrupted by a delayed flight, a cancelled booking, missing baggage, lost travel documents, or an unexpected card transaction. During peak travel periods, these inconveniences can quickly affect schedules, budgets, and family time.
That is why travel protection should be treated as an essential part of every travel checklist.
Introducing Travel 360 from Etiqa Philippines
To help travelers prepare for more than just the expected, Etiqa Philippines introduces Travel 360, a comprehensive travel insurance product designed for individuals and families. It brings together broader travel inconvenience benefits, digital capabilities, medical and emergency assistance, and lifestyle-oriented protection in one comprehensive travel solution. COVID-19 coverage is now included as part of the plan, so travelers no longer need to purchase or pay for it separately.
Travel 360 is part of Etiqa’s regional strategic initiative to bring products and capabilities across its markets, combining Etiqa’s regional expertise with local understanding to meet the evolving needs of Filipino travelers.
“Travel should bring families closer and create lasting memories, not leave them feeling unprepared when plans change. With Travel 360, we are combining Etiqa’s understanding of Filipino families with the strength, expertise, and capabilities of our regional network. Our goal is to give travelers more confidence to enjoy the journey, knowing they have broader protection for the people and experiences that matter most.”
-Anthony Lou M. Bernabe
President and CEO, Etiqa Philippines
Travel inconvenience protection that responds to real journeys
Travel 360 expands protection for common travel inconveniences, including trip cancellation and baggage delay, as well as fraudulent card usage and loss of travel documents. These benefits help families manage the practical and financial impact of disruptions, whether they are planning winter city adventures in Japan, shopping in South Korea, European holidays, or cross-city itineraries in the USA.
It also offers automatic flight information and delay notifications via SMS, giving travelers timely updates so they can spend less time monitoring disruptions and more time focusing on what to do next. This is especially helpful for travelers coordinating children, senior parents, luggage, transfers, and hotel arrangements.
“Humanizing insurance means creating protection around people’s real lives. Travel 360 brings this to life by making travel protection more relevant, inclusive, and reassuring for families.”
-Gladys Pascual
Head of Strategy and Transformation, Etiqa Philippines
Designed for the whole family, including senior parents
Family holidays are increasingly multi-generational, with parents, children, and grandparents traveling together to reconnect, celebrate milestones, or create new memories. Etiqa’s Travel 360 supports this reality by extending eligibility to senior travelers up to 80 years old. This broader age coverage makes travel planning more inclusive.
Lifestyle protection that travels with you
Travel 360 goes beyond traditional travel concerns by recognizing that modern travelers bring their lifestyles with them. Unique protections reflect practical concerns travelers may leave behind or carry with them, from arranging care for a pet at home to protecting golf-related plans, addressing women-specific needs, or safeguarding home contents while the family is away.
Add Etiqa Travel 360 to the family checklist
A well-prepared holiday starts with having the essentials in place before leaving home. Along with the usual travel preparations, families can consider adding protection to their travel must-haves.
A simple family travel checklist:
· Passports, visas, tickets, and confirmed accommodation
· Medicines, prescriptions, and essential health information
· Emergency contacts, roaming access, and local payment options
· Copies of important documents stored separately
· Etiqa’s Travel 360 protection that covers inconveniences, emergencies, and the family’s lifestyle needs. Visit etiqa.com.ph to find out more.
The best family holidays are remembered for shared meals, new places, and time together, not for the disruptions along the way. By combining automatic flight information and claims notifications, expanded travel inconvenience benefits, lifestyle protections, and coverage for senior travelers up to age 80, Etiqa Travel 360 helps families prepare more completely for holiday journeys around the world.
Because while no one can predict every delay or inconvenience, families can make protection part of the plan before the trip begins.
