Generali Global Assistance Standard
We purchased this plan for our trip to Glacier. American Airlines canceled our connecting flight and this insurance company is not wanting to pay for us not getting to our first night AirBnB. Said that American Airlines said it was due to completion of pilot duties and that is not covered. It would be covered for weather, mechanical or strike, but not this. Who cares why it happened. This was caused by our flight being canceled by the airlines, not us. We ended up having to purchase new airfare and the cost was exorbitant. I figured we would at least get reimbursed for the first night hotel that we missed if not some of the new airfare. I am very upset and will NEVER recommend this plan again.

    We were able to get payment for our trip in the end. It did take work on my end to speak to a manager and sending more information. American Airlines had canceled a connecting flight due to one of the reasons that had been accepted. I do believe any problem that an airline would cancel for should be covered, but it all worked out in the end. I suggest reviewing and comparing all insurances carefully. Thank you.

Very disappointed in General Global Assistance and its deceptive marketing. We included and paid for "Cancel For Any Reason" except for a "listed covered event" in our coverage. We cancelled it per our own personal misgivings about Covid circumstances. While there were pandemic warnings about international travel, there were no restrictions about our travel.

This was misleading business, and we're very dissatisfied with the company's performance. Not only will we never use it again, it should be a warning to any members of the traveling public who may ever consider employing General Global Assistance.

Fortunately, no problems that required a need to file a claim. Nonetheless, always feel confident that if a situation occurred we'd be in good hands with Insure My Trip. Andrew

The trip included a
cruise
Generali Global Assistance Preferred
I cancelled the cruise that this policy was for.
I requested to use the premium on insurance for another cruise that I had previously booked and paid for.

Was told I could only use it for the voucher I received for the recently canceled trip and a new booking.

I have no plans for a new booking in the immediate future because of uncertainties of COVID .

I will not ever again use Insure My Trip to purchase travel insurance.

The Government shut down travel to Ireland. This company refused to return my $400+ premium because of their 10 day free look period. All was well at ten days but ended the trip after that. No cooperation from this company on returning the premium. I would recommend no one do buisness with this company!

    Thank you for your review. Please see the response from Generali.

    "We’re sorry the coverage didn’t meet your expectation. As stated in our policy documents, our plans only reimburse for non-refundable, pre-paid trip costs if you need to cancel your trip for a covered reason. Generali Global Assistance plans do not offer coverage if you cancel your trip due to fear of traveling due to Coronavirus, unless you added Trip Cancellation for Any Reason coverage. To see if you qualify for a voucher that may be applied to travel at a future date, please visit generalitravel.com/voucher. It is important that you review your Description of Coverage, which are available before and after your purchase. We take customer service very seriously and want our customers to make informed choices when purchasing travel insurance."
