Insurance in Africa

TRAVELLER WARNING:

In today's uncertain economic climate you cannot afford to make payment for your holiday to a travel company that doesn't provide trust account and insured financial protection.

Do not be fooled by empty or shallow promises linked to years of trading or association membership bonding such as SATSA which, whilst a quality association dedicated to providing and maintaining the highest possible standards of service within the South African tourism industry, does not provide adequate or comprehensive financial protection.

Company statements such as, "Bonding has long been a problem for African-based Tour Operators trying to attract international visitors, particularly those from Europe, which are protected by bonding agencies abroad. I am proud to announce that through our SATSA affiliation, we are now a bonded agency, completing the circle of a one stop travel shop to Africa” are misleading.

Although the bonding statement is true, what isn't stated is that this bonding is completely inadequate.

Each bonded company pays a mere R400 a year for cover. This provides a maximum of R1,500,000.00 cover to be shared by all travel companies and travellers within the industry(eg. natural disaster); a maximum of only R300,000.00 cover per unfortunate event(eg. airline financial failure); and a maximum of R75,000.00 cover for each individual traveller no matter what the claim. This is far from adequate cover for your holiday, unlike our comprehensive financial protection.
