Comprehensive plans offer the most benefits, including Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption. These plans provide the best protection for the investment you have made in your trip.
My mother and I booked a trip to Europe but shortly before we left my mother had an accident so we were unable to go. She used a different Travel Insurance company so I submitted identical paperwork- doctors letters, confirmations, cancellations, credit card details, etc - to both companies. My mother’s company sent her a refund check within a month with no further need of proof of documentation. Nationwide sent me more emails asking for identical paperwork, letters of cancellation and other information which I had already sent. Weeks later I received a check but I did not get the full refund I was entitled to as they deducted amounts I had paid. As it had taken so much time I accepted the final amount offered but will definitely be using the other Travel Insurance company in the future.

We didn't have to file a claim, fortunately, but having done so a couple of years ago we know how good they are. Having that confidence in them makes for a more relaxed trip

Took the advice of Clark Howard and found Travelex through his website, and so relieved I did. We had a significant medical claim and sent our paperwork in upon our trip return. I immediately received confirmation and within two weeks received a follow-up email confirming that our claim had been approved. Less than one week later, our check was received in the mail as we had requested. Well worth the investment, peace of mind and completely satisfied!!! *****

My husband & I started buying insurance about 6 years ago. It seamed expensive each time I purchased it, but as our parents were aging I thought it was something we should do. We recently planned our longest and farthest trip for over a year to go to New Zealand and Australia. We were very excited, both of us healthy, when out of no where the night before, my husband got sick, and we went from 2 emergency room visits that night to being admitted to the hospital for 4 more days and he was not advised to travel for a few months after that due to follow up doc visits. On my initial call I was in quite a panic, but they were calm & understood and helped me deal with it all. All turned out good for my husband, and we rebooked the only other cruise/airfare available for a similar trip this fall. And we are buying the same policy we had last time with Generali. Why? Because due to their excellent response & assistance & clarification of what info they needed, etc. in order for us to get our money returned as soon as possible they deserve our loyalty. They were always available when I needed to ask a quesiton. I advise keeping detailed records, (I am fortunate that my husband did that) Also, know that that it will take time for all the paperwork (about 60 days) but the delays are not because of the insurance company, usually due to waiting on hospital records, etc. (they also warned me in advance about the time frame to collect all the data). My claim handler Chanel was fantastic.

I appreciated the email contact before the trip began reminding me to take the documents. Also it was easy to update some last minute flight changes. Thank you!

There was a hiccup at the start of our trip. While it stressed us out, we felt secure knowing this plan would get us to the vacation. Never needed it but the peace of mind is worth it!

Travel insurance is key to ensuring a safe and comforting trip/vacation to mitigate many potential travel risk encountered from lost luggage, flight cancellation, evacuation, travel refund and more.
