Affordable Trip Cancellation and Travel Medical Insurance Packages
to Olympic Enthusiasts Traveling to Beijing, China for the 2008
Summer Games
We at Sunburst
International Risk Management (www.InternationalRiskManagement.com
) and Sunburst Worldwide Insurance Services (www.WorldwideMedicalPlans.com)
are pleased to introduce a comprehensive travel insurance package
that is especially designed for the more than 500,000 expected
attendees of the 2008 Summer Games in Beijing.
Starting at $1.50 per day, our
travel protection policy protects leisure and business travelers
against potential problems unique to the upcoming Games in China
such as natural disasters, terrorism activity, disease outbreaks,
medical emergencies and legal issues.
Travelers can upgrade this
package with options such as trip disruption or cancellation that
protects an Olympic fan's investment in this exciting event which
can cost $4,000-$20,000 (not including airfare).
The U.S. Department of State
and the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention have issued various
travel warnings and health alerts for individuals attending the 2008
Games.
However, for as little as
$1.50 per day, our travel medical insurance policy protects
travelers against the cost of medical evacuations (which can cost
over $100,000), hospitalizations, surgeries, ambulance
transportation, doctor and dentist visits and prescriptions.
Our international network
providers include direct contracts with many hospitals in Beijing
and Shanghai as well as a vast network of physicians and pharmacies.
Not including airfare, Olympic
enthusiasts are spending between $4,000-$20,000 for hotel, food,
transportation, Olympic tickets and other event-related activities.
However, by purchasing trip cancellation insurance, travelers can
protect themselves from the exorbitant cost and inconvenience of
lost event tickets, flight delays and cancellations, airline
bankruptcies and lost luggage.
To protect U.S. citizens from
a host of legal issues while traveling abroad, our
Olympic travel insurance package also includes coverage for legal
expenses such as bail bonds, legal assistance and representation,
and repatriation.
Our policy holders have access
to 24-hour multilingual assistance; pre-trip information on
Olympic-specific regulations, health care, political and cultural
issues; and connections to international legal and health care
resources.

Another Airline Casualty: Aloha Airline
By

March 31, 2008
Seeing a decal of a bird of paradise flower on Aloha
Airline’s tail often brought me good memories of good old
days of inter-island hoping during the early 1980s. We, a
bunch of young working college people in Oahu, would get in
line in front of the Aloha Airline counter to get our
tickets to either Maui or Big Island for a 3-day holiday
weekend. We each paid about $US45.00 round trip to
Maui and $US65.00 to
Big
Island. Of
course, we often selected the least busy time of the day to
get such low prices. No advanced reservations needed. We
benefited from fierce competition between Aloha Air and
Hawaiian Air in those days.
On
April 1, 2008, Aloha Airline will cease its operation
completely after a long financial struggle since 2004. There are no
longer any working online reservations through
Aloha Airlines.
Travelers who have booked tickets for future trips can contact
either
United Airlines or
Hawaiian Airlines to rebook their
tickets. Neither
United Airlines or
Hawaiian Airlines promise to honor all
Aloha’s tickets.
Aloha!!!
