The trip included a
cruise
Nationwide Mutual Insurance
Choice Cruise
I would recommend this policy to others but with the following advice. If you make a claim online, keep in mind that the claim examiner assigned to you might not find your situation as straight forward as you think it is. There might be some back and forth -via email or phone call (on your part) about the documentation you submitted (e.g. an explanation in English for a receipt in Italian even though it's pretty obvious what it's for) or a request for more documentation than what you submitted (e.g. submitting not only receipts but credit card statements that match the receipts) .
It will all get worked out, but not overnight and maybe not as quickly as you think it should. I just received my settlement for a claim I initiated 5 weeks ago. I thought that was an acceptable outcome.
One last thing, pay attention to the Trip Delay max. The policy I bought had a daily max of $150. When I was pickpocketed the morning of my cruise and had to stay in Rome overnight to get an emergency passport, then fly to Majorca, Spain to meet up with my ship that would be docking the morning after, I incurred the cost of two nights in a hotel, train and taxi fares, a plane ticket, and the cost of replacing my passport. I was traveling off-season, so both the airfare and the hotel costs were minimal, but I still exceeded the daily limit for 3 days of Travel Delay by $158.00.

The best thing about purchasing travel insurance is knowing that I am covered financially in case something happens. The peace of mind of knowing that you will receive help in the event of an incident is reassuring.

Traveling with an 80 year old who is in great health. Weather can also be a factor, so wanted coverage for trip. Everything went as planned but was very glad to have the coverage if there was a delay coming back.

Fortunately I did not need to use my plan but I had peace of mind knowing that I was covered for the unexpected. This plan covered everything I needed at a reasonable cost.

I originally booked a cruise for our 21st wedding anniversary; however, sadly my brother passed away a week before our trip. Thankfully, I had travel insurance with 'Nationwide." I contacted "Insure my Trip first". They answered the phone in less than 5minutes. The representative gave me the contact information for "Nationwide insurance". I uploaded the documents they requested and they responded and honored my claim 100% within 3 weeks.
I am so thankful I chose Nationwide to insure us, this was the first time that I used them. In the past I used a different insurance company, C & F travel, for several years and never filed a claim; however , upon looking at their current reviews I noticed this time around they had several bad reviews on not honoring their claims so I decided to go with Nationwide. Nationwide took care of me and my family when we needed them most.
I will continue to used them for my travel insurance needs!

They do not accept to extend the insurance days, even if the trip was delayed due to flight cancellation.
