USTA (US Traveler Assist), an affordable security and safety service provider for US travelers visiting select countries has announced its plans yesterday to expand into new emerging markets that include Latin America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. The company strives to provide the best safety and security services to potential US travelers (American tourists, Travelers and students) going abroad- thereby ensuring peace of mind for them. The US travelers simply need to buy a relevant travel insurance from USTA to enjoy the cover in an emergency while traveling abroad. USTA is currently offering two kinds of coverage: 1) Short term travel cover- this can be had by the clients for as little as $20 per day 2) Long-term cover for residents abroad- this comes at affordable cost.
Carlos Barron, the firm’s co-founder and former veteran of the FBI says ”In today’s rapidly changing world, it is important to be aware of the risks travelers may incur while traveling abroad.”
In the early years of its inception the company (USTA) started off with services for US travelers to Spain and Italy, over the years it has expanded into new markets like Mexico, Costa Rica, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia and the UAE.
In a nutshell USTA is a security and service provider for US travelers, and a global network of former senior US Embassy officials providing consulting and assistance to Americans traveling abroad. The uniqueness about USTA is unlike other similar firms in the US they don’t offer a 1-800 number that can’t be located, USTA clients can communicate confidently with the customer agents directly and they can be sure of where their call has been routed. Their 24 x 7 customer service gives access to qualified personnel who have the legal know-how to assist clients in a safety / security situation when they travel abroad. USTA is the only firm of its kind in the US to offer 24 x 7 direct on-the ground and personal assistance to US travelers.
