A comprehensive plan was required for the trip we were taking to subantarctic islands off the coast of New Zealand. The plan we purchased contained all of the necessary elements for our trip and was cheaper than equivalent plans. That is the operational definition of a good deal.

Thankfully, I did not need to call upon the Insurance. However, as an older woman traveling to third-world countries, having this coverage gave great peace of mind to me and to my family. That is certainly well worth the cost.

I attempted to call your company to file a claim and get help with a trip delay in India. I was told from the 24 hour emergency number that they could not help me, could not tell me whether scheduling a flight out of that mess would be covered, could not send me more information about coverage,and were the least helpful people in a time of stress. I regret purchasing this package and will warn everyone I can not to purchase it. I organized many group trips a year and could not have been more disappointed. It has been the worse experience with a agency I have ever had.

Although I was fortunate that I did not have to use any of the coverage provided, the comfort and security I felt knowing that it was there was invaluable. The person I spoke to while signing up for this plan was beyond helpful. Definitely will use this company again when traveling.

If you are considering this company, make sure you fully understand their definition of 'pre-existing conditions'. This company has a 180 look-back history. I didn't know what that meant until I had to file a claim and was denied. Here's what look-back means: any condition evaluated or treated 180 days PRIOR to purchase. "Underlying conditions" is also part of this definition. I lost a lot of $$$ not fully understanding the definitions. Next time I have to buy travel insurance, I will DEFINITELY go to great lengths to understand every aspect of the policy.

We’re sorry to hear about the circumstances surrounding your claim. We take customer service very seriously and, as you mention, cannot stress enough that it is important to review the coverage details of our plans via the sample Description of Coverage/Insurance Policy that’s provided at the time of purchase, and contact us at (800) 348-9505 or via email at [email protected] with any additional questions you may have. We have dedicated Customer Service Representatives on staff who can help answer questions and guide you towards the best coverages. We also offer a free look back period with all of our plans to allow customers to cancel their policies within a designated period as long as they haven't already left on their trip or filed a claim. As you’ve said in your review, the plan you purchased is unable to provide coverage for any losses resulting from Pre-Existing Medical Conditions. Our Custom Luxe plan can provide coverage for such losses provided the plan is purchased prior to or within 24 hours of final trip payment, if other requirements outlined in the Description of Coverage/Policy are met. If you have additional questions or concerns, please reach out to us at the number or email provided above.Jan 10,2017

The insurance was not needed, but the peace of mind made it worth it. There were three medical emergencies on my trip. One required a helicopter evacuation. Another required a passenger be hospitalized in one port. The third was taken off the ship in another port by ambulance. I am pleased that I had coverage that was not needed.
