AXA Philippines, Cebu Pacific tie up for non-travel insurance product

MANILA, Philippines — AXA Philippines, one of the country’s leading insurance providers, has tied up with leading budget carrier Cebu Pacific (CEB), to provide non-travel insurance to the airline’s customer base through CEB Health Protect.

CEB Health Protect, underwritten by AXA Philippines, offers value-for-money coverage for the top three critical illnesses: cancer, heart attack and stroke. This is the first of a number of products under CEB’s new suite of lifestyle insurance packages, launched specifically to cater to its customers’ needs beyond travel.

Through the partnership, the two industry leaders strive to offer customers a convenient and seamless booking process for their insurance needs. Every Filipino or “Juan” may start their journey of availing the health insurance from the comfort and safety of their own homes via CEB’s website, which will redirect them to the AXA Philippines’ website for the fulfillment and issuance of the policy.

“We are very excited over this partnership because now we are able to reach out to more Filipinos who will have access to insurance and financial services,” said AXA Philippines chief customer officer Amor Balagtas. “This enables us to fulfill our mission to help secure the future of every Filipino – or in this case – every Juan.”

“Our passengers have always been at the heart of our business and now more than ever, we strive to always give them peace of mind when flying with us,” said Candice Iyog, CEB vice-president for marketing and customer experience.
