The AIG Advantage

Unmanned aircraft can play a pivotal role in firefighting, search and rescue, and explosive detection. They are poised to become a critical public safety resource, with their use expected to become increasingly commonplace by municipalities of many sizes in the months and years ahead. We have developed an innovative endorsement to our commercial general liability insurance policy for public entities that provides express liability coverage for the insured’s unmanned aircraft. Coverage is designed for unmanned aircraft up to five pounds, with wingspans or combined rotor span of up to three feet—precisely the type of craft many of your public entity clients may be utilizing in the near future. Currently approved for public entities, this Unmanned Aircraft Liability Endorsement will soon be available for a range of risks, including but not limited to, farming, infrastructure maintenance, construction, and oil and gas exploration

Our Unmanned Aircraft Insurance comes with the expertise of AIG’s dedicated, highly experienced aerospace underwriting, claims and loss control teams. So insureds can benefit from everything from a loss control specialists to help enhance operational safety, to an emergency response team that ensures major accident claims are resolved as rapidly as possible.
