Allianz Partners offers its Rental Car Damage Protector** through leading travel providers and directly to consumers as an alternative to the typically higher priced collision damage insurance products that are offered at rental car counters. The product provides primary coverage, includes no deductible and can be purchased for domestic or most overseas rentals. Rental Car Damage Protector plans also include $500 in Trip Interruption coverage, which can be used to reimburse travelers for the unused portion of their pre-paid expenses or for extra unexpected transportation expenses when insured customers have to cut their trip short due to a reason covered by their policy. The product is also backed by Allianz Partners’ award-winning customer service and 24/7 travel assistance.

*Methodology: The data of U.S. travelers’ 2023 Thanksgiving traveling plans was gathered by analyzing the number of travelers that were offered a rental car product during the Thanksgiving season (11/18/2023 to 11/28/2023). In total, more than 1,700 reservations were reviewed.
