Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
Our flight home was delayed a day due to freezing fog so our plane was unable to land and was diverted back to PDX. Nationwide Insurance was very easy to deal with to be reimbursed for our night in a motel. The person I spoke with was very helpful and courteous and our claim was paid promptly. Thank you.

BUYER BEWARE!!
We have been purchasing trip insurance through InsureMyTrip and Nationwide for years. On Dec. 16, our flight was canceled meaning we could not reach our cruise destination of San Juan and had to meet the cruise a day later in St. Kitts. I felt sure our trip interruption portion of our policy would cover the cost of missing one day of a very expensive holiday cruise. Wow, was I wrong. When I called Nationwide, I was told unless the airport is completely shut down, the cancellation of a flight is not covered. I was told there was no need to file a claim as no payment would be made. I called InsureMyTrip to speak with someone about this. I was told, "Sorry you're not happy. Have a great day."
Never Ever Again!!!
Read every word of the fine print.

    Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are sorry to hear that your flight was cancelled and that your vacation was negatively impacted.

    The Nationwide Essential plan is a "named peril" policy which means that the peril (covered reason) must be specifically listed in the plan or there is no coverage. This particular plan includes the following coverage for Trip Interruption:
    "Weather that causes complete cessation of services of the Common Carrier for at least twenty-four (24) consecutive hours and prevents You from reaching Your destination."

    We do have other policies available on our site that have specific cruise benefits, such as Missed Connection. In the future, if you are looking for guidance in selecting a travel insurance plan, please consider contacting our office at 800-487-4722 where a licensed representative would be happy to assist you.

I would highly recommend Nationwide for all of your travel insurance needs! It gave me peace of mind on my vacation knowing that if any problems occurred, my family would be covered. Should you need to file a claim, there is usually only one form to fill out and just a few supporting documents to provide. Customer service is great and claims are expedited within 15 days. Signing up for the plan on Insuremytrip.com was simple and fast, it took only a few minutes to complete the process once I chose a plan.

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
We had a flight cancelled and a resultant overnight stay on the way back from our vacation. We called the Insuremytrip service number. the rep transferred us to a Nationwide service rep for some of our questions. Both people answered promptly, were able to bring up our information, and provided knowledgeable answers on what we would need to file a claim. However, the airline paid for our room and meals so we did not need to file. So, although we cannot rate claims payment, we were impressed by both the Insuremytrip and Nationwide service people.
