The company’s primary product is AirCare, which pays air travelers when common mishaps occur, including flight delays, missed connections (when scheduled connection times are 52 minutes or longer), and lost or delayed baggage (unless on an itinerary with connection times of 51 minutes or less). BHTP is a division of Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance, which provides commercial property, casualty, healthcare liability, executive and professional lines of insurance and programs for customers across the United States. Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance underwrites on the paper of Berkshire Hathaway's National Indemnity group of companies, which hold financial strength ratings of A++ from AM Best and AA+ from Standard & Poor's. BHSI locations of operation include New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston and Atlanta. BHTP’s president, John M.

The purchase allowed BHSI to offer its customers 24-hour global personal assistance, virtual-concierge and connected-vehicle service as well as travel-industry liability insurance. BHTP was founded in May 2014. It concentrates on travel insurance services and relies heavily on technology to pay claims through real-time trip-tracking and electronic deposits.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://money.msn.com/saving-money-tips/post--plane-luggage-lost-heres-dollar1000 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000281081 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
