Arch RoamRight Essential
Arch Roam Right is a terrible company. They look out for their own interests, not the interests of their insureds, and attempt to deny claims by re-writing their policies after the fact so that they can deny your legitimate claims. Beware. We are avid travelers and will never use their insurance again, and are in the process of filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

    Cancel for Any Reason (CFAR), which is an optional coverage that is available in some plans for an additional premium, allows you to cancel your trip prior to departure for other than a covered reason. There are 3 conditions that must be met to purchase a Cancel For Any Reason Rider as follows: Purchase the policy within 10-21 days of First Trip Payment; Insure ALL prepaid and non-refundable travel expenses prior to departure; Trip must be canceled more than 2-3 days prior to departure date. If you meet all 3 of these conditions, most of the policies will reimburse you for 50% to 75% of your trip costs depending on the plan you select.

    Although it may appear to be expensive, CFAR does reimburse you with a check while most cruise lines provide you only with a voucher for a future trip.

While we did not have to file a claim found the plan to cover what concerns us most when traveling. The cost is much cheaper than those offered by travel sites for the same coverage.

The trip included a
cruise
Arch RoamRight Essential
It was a good feeling to know that we were covered during our trip. I do have question about the plan. If included would the plan cover any excursions purchased on the cruise. A suggestion, it might be worth reminding vendors to make travellers aware of the need to purchase insurance as soon as they put a deposit down.

    Thank you very much for submitting a review to assist your fellow travelers.

    You can include the cost of any excursions as long as the expense is prepaid and non-refundable. If you book the excursion after you purchase the policy, you should call us at 800-487-4722 to advise us of the increase in trip cost so that we can quote you the additional amount due, if any.

    You are correct in stating that travelers should be aware that most travel medical providers include the preexisting condition waiver if the plan is purchased within 10 to 30 days of the Initial Trip Payment. Although there are some plans that go by Final Payment, their cost is generally higher than those plans that go by Initial Trip Payment.
