SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwired - Sep 14, 2016) - CSA Travel Protection, dedicated for 25 years to providing travel insurance and emergency assistance services, announced today that its Protect&GO™ email marketing campaign took home a gold 2016 Travel Weekly Magellan Award in the Travel Agent/Agency - Advertising/Marketing Campaign (up to 5 pieces) category.

"Congratulations to the marketing team for creating this award-winning campaign," said Bob Chambers, vice president of operations at CSA Travel Protection. "Here's an example of how CSA Travel Protection continues to set the highest standards in the travel insurance industry."
