Cincinnati-based American Modern Insurance Group has joined travel insurance underwriting team of US Online comparison site.
American Modern currently provides three Compass Series policies that are available only through TripInsurance.com, and deliver benefits at substantial cost savings, particularly for travelers looking to insure expensive trips.
TripInsurance.com founder and CEO Dan Skilken said the three Compass Series policies will bring an added dimension to the company's suite of policy options, and more choice for its customers.
''Persons planning cruises or other costly trips will be particularly interested in the very attractive rates American Modern offers,'' Skilken added.
''Also, anyone vacationing in the Caribbean or Southeastern US during the summer or fall will like the additional hurricane warning coverage American Modern includes in the Compass Series plans.''
Other four carriers having exclusive arrangements with the site include BCS Insurance, Nationwide Mutual Insurance, Old Republic Insurance, and US Fire Insurance.
When combined together, the five companies offer 15 different policies through TripInsurance.com.
