At the beginning of July 2019, Sacos, in partnership with Air Seychelles, Avani & Berjaya, launched its’ second “Great Travel Insurance Giveaway” promotion for customers purchasing a Travel Insurance Plan between 1st July and 1st September, with the aim of raising awareness on the importance of getting a Travel Insurance Cover when travelling overseas, whether for business or leisure. Having a Travel Insurance has become an essential part of travelling. It not only acts as a safety net against the risk of incurring unforeseen medical expenses but also safeguards against other travel related emergencies that could spoil a person’s trip such as trip delays, loss of passport or luggage, and many more.

The lucky winners of our second promotion received their prizes today, Friday 11th October at Sacos Head Office and Ms. Paquerette Lablache walked away with the Star-prize of a return ticket to South Africa, which was presented by Ms. Brigitte Appoo, Head of Sales at Sacos & Ms. Elsie Hurst, Corporate Relations Manager of Air Seychelles who co-sponsored the ticket. Ms. Lablache understands the benefits and protection that the Travel Insurance can offer during an overseas trip and for the last 2 years, she always ensures that she purchase her travel insurance from Sacos. Indeed, she stated, “nowadays it is becoming very tough when you travel, as you can be involved in any accidents. You are leaving your family behind and you do not know what can happen to you while you are travelling, it is therefore very wise to take the travel insurance to feel secure.” “People should not think twice to purchase the Travel Insurance!” she continued, “ I am very happy and feel very secured and safe when I purchase my Travel Insurance from Sacos”

The other winners of the promotion were: Ms, Emmelyn Porice, who won a night stay on Half Board at Berjaya Praslin Beach, Ms. Richelle Jean, who won a one night stay at on BB at Avani Resort & Spa, and Ms. Valerie Ah-Weng who won dinner for two sponsored by Berjaya Beau Vallon Bay Resort.

“We are happy that through our promotions travellers are becoming more conscious and appreciate the need for them to take insurance cover when they travel” said Ms, Morel, CEO of Sacos “ I would encourage others to ensure they are protected when they travel – after all one never knows what can go wrong” she continued. “We will continue to provide our clients the protection needed, in partnership with Mapfre, our internationally renowned insurance partner, which operates worldwide and therefore provides immediate assistance for our client, wherever they are” she concluded.

Since January this year we have had three lucky travellers who have won return tickets in our “great travel insurance giveaway” as well as other prizes and that included return ticket to Mauritius, Sri Lanka, and South Africa.
