We didn't need it but we heard good things about a fellow passenger who did. Thanks for saving a life Travelex!

Since we didn't have any reason to file a claim, we can't comment on how well it would have worked. But the price was the best we could find, and we felt more secure knowing that we had a policy.

We had a 28 day cruise from San Diego and return.used Southwest Airlines for the flights and be booked hotel rooms before our flights. We had no issues with our travel's therefore no claims were processed. The travel insurance gave peace of mind during our travels that if a problem arose we had help available.

Peace of mind is priceless. Had no issues...but when you travel there are so many opportunities for an unknown circumstance to present itself. Our policy covered 3 of us, so total was reasonable and we opted for full coverage.

We purchased this plan for a cruise in French Polynesia. While there, we had a medical emergency which required care. On our return flight to Los Angeles, the flight was delayed and I arrived too late to make my connecting flight and had to get a hotel room at the airport. We filed two claims for these small costs. We never received payment. HOWEVER, we belatedly called the company, and the representative advised that they had mailed checks. The timing was just when we transitioned from our summer home to our winter home, so the checks were clearly lost, and he confirmed that they had not been cashed. He said that he would stop payment on the original checks and issue replacements, which he did. Bottom line, our claims were honored without dispute. A very satisfactory experience!

Thankfully, we did not need to call on the benefits of this plan. I think that is every traveler's desire. But compared to other options available to me through my travel agent and other sources, I still feel this plan best met our needs and at a price that was better than I could find elsewhere.

Although this plan is a fair price and it's a good idea to cover expensive trips with insurance, this plan did not meet our needs. Our travel agent dissolved the company after we had already paid and before we left on our trip. I was told numerous times by agents via phone that our insurance policy would cover this. The policy states that they will not cover bankruptcy by a travel provider, but our travel provider did not go bankrupt, they shut down their business and dissolved it. Our claim was denied. I find this ridiculous as you buy trip insurance to cover your trip so you don't lose money should something happen beyond your control. This happened at no fault of our own and we've been absorbed into red tape and helpless to get our money back. This insurance policy was not worth the price and headache to file a claim.

Well . . . since insurance is basically defined as the insurance company betting that I won't have a problem, and me betting that I will . . . I paid a reasonable amount for what I considered to be a good product that covered what I would need in case there were any issues.

Unfortunately, there are no travel insurance companies that would pay a claim for an incident such as this. It does not meet the definition of bankruptcy in the policy provisions and there is no coverage for a company just shutting down, as this could be considered fraud or a scam.
