KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 13 (Bernama) -- Berjaya Sompo Insurance Berhad (“Berjaya Sompo”) has introduced an innovative enhancement to its flagship travel insurance plan, SOMPO TravelSafe+, through the addition of Sompo Smart Delay – a new service benefit that allows travellers to enjoy complimentary access to airport lounges and travel experiences when their flights are delayed by one hour or more.

To enjoy this benefit, travellers simply need to purchase SOMPO TravelSafe+ Elite A or Elite B plan and register their flight details at least three hours before departure. In the event of a delay, they will automatically receive a LoungeKey™ digital pass via email or SMS, granting them access to over 1,800 lounges in more than 500 airports worldwide.

“We constantly seek ways to elevate our customer experience by combining protection with convenience.” said Mr Tan Sek Kee, Chief Executive Officer of Berjaya Sompo Insurance Berhad. He added that the introduction of Sompo Smart Delay transforms travel insurance from a safety net into a comfort-driven service. “Even when travel plans change, our customers can now relax, recharge, and continue their journey with peace of mind knowing that Sompo is right there with them.”

In conjunction with this campaign, Berjaya Sompo has launched its latest travel campaign, “Think Japan, Think Sompo”, designed to inspire Malaysians to experience Japan with greater confidence, comfort, and peace of mind. Being part of a global group company with Japanese origin, Berjaya Sompo celebrates a shared heritage that spans over a century, while enhancing the travel experience for today’s modern explorers and meeting the evolving travel trends.
