One in five US flights ran late last year [U.S. DOT, 2024], and the average disrupted trip costs a company over $1,700 in unplanned lodging, meals, transport, and overtime [Perk/Opinium, 2025]. Big corporations have travel departments to absorb that. Your team has a group text. An annual plan covers each traveler for every trip they take all year, and every covered trip sends a sponsorship to the cause your company chooses.
Why businesses partner with BonaVia
A service to your people. A service to the cause your company picks.
Your team’s need first: at one in five flights delayed [U.S. DOT, 2024] and 42% of business travelers hitting a cancellation last year [Perk/Opinium, 2025], a traveling team doesn’t wonder whether a trip goes sideways this quarter: it wonders which one. And when it does, the tab lands on your P&L: unplanned hotels, rebooking fees, overtime, and a rep walking into the pitch a day late.
Then the community side: your company already sponsors the youth team, the food bank, the chamber project. The sponsorship attaches that giving to travel the team was doing anyway: the quietest line item in your community budget.
Covered delay, baggage, and medical benefits can help take the “save every receipt and hope” out of a bad trip, and “we cover your travel” reads like a company that looks after its people, at a fraction of what managed-travel programs cost. It won’t replace a corporate risk program: it’s the piece your travelers actually carry.
No travel department required: the roster renews annually in a single confirmation, and there is no per-trip purchasing for anyone on a Sunday-night booking spree to forget.
BonaVia is the licensed producer; coverage is underwritten by our licensed carrier partners. Your company offers the benefit and names the cause: licensing, disclosures, and claims stay ours.
Each covered traveler carries the plan card in Apple or Google Wallet, with the 24/7 assistance number riding in the same card. Hospital in another country, cases lost in a connection, trip melting down at midnight: they tap the card and someone answers. Nobody hunts for a PDF or calls HR first.
The napkin math
One road warrior on your team, illustratively:
Illustrative pricing only: premiums vary by traveler, plan, and state; not a quote. Benefits and availability vary by state.
Because the math of frequency is against you, and per-trip insurance was never built for your calendar.
A rep who flies every month is twelve chances a year for the connection to die or the bag to vanish. Buying protection trip-by-trip means twelve checkouts, or forgetting the one trip where it mattered. One annual plan covers every trip, all year, automatically.
Book the flight and go: coverage is already riding along. Nothing for the traveler to remember, nothing for the office to chase, no gap between bookings.
Annual plans are per-traveler with aggregate yearly limits, which is why an annual quote never asks what a trip costs. Each team member carries their own plan and their own assistance card.
If your team travels more than a couple of times a year, the annual plan is the one decision that covers all of them.
Benefits and availability vary by state.
A team that travels constantly doesn’t have unusual bad luck: it has ordinary bad luck, multiplied. At one in five flights delayed and 42% of business travelers hitting a cancellation last year [U.S. DOT, 2024; Perk/Opinium, 2025], a ten-trip-a-month team doesn’t wonder whether a trip goes sideways this quarter; it wonders which one. Disrupted trips already cost US companies over $17 billion a year in exactly these line items [Perk/Opinium, 2025].
And most traveling teams face that alone: roughly 65% of global business travel spend is unmanaged, and more than 90% of travelers at small and mid-market companies book their own trips [Skift, 2025]: no travel department, no disruption desk, no one whose job it is to think about trip protection. That team is exactly who annual plans were built for.
Businesses reach us directly or through the chambers that already know them. Either way the shape is the same: the travel your team already does, protected, and supporting a cause your company chooses to stand behind.
Your crew lands for the biggest trade show of the year. The people arrive; the checked cases with the banners, the demo units, and the giveaways don’t: airlines mishandled 33.4 million bags in 2024 [SITA, 2025]. The show opens in fourteen hours. Baggage delay benefits can help cover the essentials while the airline hunts for the cases, and a 24/7 assistance line means someone is working the problem at midnight besides your marketing manager.
Your senior engineer is walking a client’s factory floor overseas when a fall turns into a hospital visit. The domestic health plan gets vague at the border, the hospital wants a guarantee of payment, and a medical evacuation home can run from $25,000 to $250,000. Emergency medical and evacuation coverage can help with treatment and transport, and the assistance line can help coordinate with the hospital, in the local language, at 3 a.m. your time.
Last week of the quarter. Two reps are flying out to close the deal that makes the year.
Mon 4:12 pm
The inbound leg goes “rolling delay.” The connection to the final-round pitch dies at the gate: next seat out is tomorrow afternoon.
Mon 9:00 pm
A hotel nobody budgeted, a rebooking fee, dinner at the airport, a buyer whose calendar just got cold. Per disrupted traveler, the tab averages $502 in unplanned lodging alone [Perk/Opinium, 2025].
Tue 8:00 am
Covered travel-delay benefits are designed to help with the hotel, the meals, and the scramble: receipts, not write-offs.
Tue 2:30 pm
The rep walks in a day late but squared away: the only thing being negotiated in the room is the deal.
