Even though we didn’t use the insurance it was a comfort to know we had it just in case. I highly recommend that everyone gets trip insurance.

I am thankful not to have the need to use the plan but the ease in purchasing the plan was wonderful and the cost was reasonable.

I did not have to use the plan as my vacation went well so it is hard for me to rate the questions. It did give me peace of mind knowing that I had insurance should something go wrong.

Of all the times I have purchased travel insurance, this was the first time I had to use it and I was very unhappy with Nationwide when they denied our claim. My daughter and I survived the Las Vegas concert mass shooting, but my daughter was still too traumatized and stressed to travel on a plane and be on a crowded cruise ship over Thanksgiving. She had all the supporting documentation from a health care provider but because she wasn't hospitalized for an emotional/psychiatric issue it was not covered! (watch the fine print on exclusions when you purchase insurance). Plus, they took so long to finally deny it that we lost our window to even try to reuse the airfare. It was VERY frustrating to deal with a large insurance company that couldn't consider the extenuating circumstances of being in a mass shooting as cause of cancellation!

While I appreciate your reply, the "cancel for any reason" rider is often not available unless you purchase the insurance right away with initial payment on the trip or at all. I have purchased many travel policies through your site. Since, we don't have all the total costs until we purchase the airfare, hotel if needed, and are sure who is finally going on the trip, it's difficult to purchase the travel insurance right away. Otherwise I would purchase the rider. PLUS, I was told that is not full value but only a portion of the costs (some is better than none but we did not anticipate that the cancellation would be for anything but illness, or the other listed covered reasons on the higher cost plan).Apr 07,2018

Best to have a good policy just in case, Nationwide did just that. Competitive cost and excellent coverage,

The best insurance is one you don’t have to use. As trip was uneventful we did not need to use it thus I can’t comment on difficulty filing claims but our experience with InsureMyTrip was quick and painless and that’s why I am a repeat customer.

Although we are very, very sorry that you and your daughter experienced the horror of the Las Vegas attack, we are relieved to hear that neither of you were physically injured. While it is understandable that your daughter was hesitant to board a plane after such an experience, it would still not be a "covered reason" for Trip Cancellation under your policy. As the company explained, your Nationwide policy excluded "...mental or emotional disorders, unless Hospitalized...", as do most travel insurance plans.
Although this was not a satisfactory claim experience since it resulted in a denial of coverage, these circumstances would have been covered under a policy with a "Cancel for Any Reason" rider. In the future, you may decide to revisit purchasing travel insurance including that optional coverage. "Cancel for Any Reason" is available under the Nationwide Choice and Luxury Cruise plans for an additional premium.
Please remember that InsureMyTrip is available for assistance by calling (800) 487-4722 weekdays from 7:00 AM to midnight ET and weekends from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM ET.
