We had to cancel our trip because one of our travelers became pregnant, and albeit that was a non cancel-able reason per the contract, our trip location is one of the highest Zika virus potentials in the world and per her doctors orders not to chance the trip.
The coverage was denied.
We canceled our trip because of the Zika virus not because she was pregnant.
I think this is wrong!

Always get insurance. Rarely ever use it, but good to know you're covered just in case. It's worth the peace of mind!

I have insured through Nationwide with almost all of my trips using InsureMyTrip. They are very reasonable for the coverage they offer. This was the first time I have had to file a claim and was pleasantly surprised. The customer service representatives I spoke with were very kind and helpful. They immediately sent me the forms to file and told me all of the paperwork I would need. The claim was handled very quickly with no problems at all. This is the kind of company that I like to deal with and would highly recommend them to anyone. They will continue to be the company I use in the future. Thank you Nationwide for a great experience.

I am extremely satisfied with the plan I purchased through Nationwide that covered a cruise. I had to cancel our cruise due to illness. I submitted the claims forms and received a prompt reimbursement. I would definitely use this company in the future.

As always I feel safer when I have insurance and you provide insurance coverage at a reasonable cost.
I had no claims but the trip I had a claim you were fast and fair.

When I travel I often say, "Oh, I can leave and go abroad without travel insurance." But, once I start shopping to price the cost of travel insurance, I'm reminded of all the things that could happen or go wrong.
When I purchased my Nationwide travel policy, I felt that if anything does happen, I have exactly the coverage I need. There were no gaps in the policy I secured for my trip to Thailand that I could see. Thank you for the comprehensive affordable travel policy!

I am thankful that I did not have to file a claim. I chose nationwide because of the amount of coverage and the price. I would use InsureMyTrip for every time I go on vacation .

We traveled from BWI to Jamaica 3/7 - 3/13 and did arrive home to a predicted snow/ice storm, which thankfully, didn't affect our travel. It was good to know that I had this travel insurance just in case!

Cancel for Any Reason coverage typically requires the following requirements (varies by plan):
1) Purchase within 10-30 days of your initial trip deposit
2) Insure 100% of your pre-paid, non-refundable trip cost
3) Cancel the trip 2 or more days prior to departure
While Cancel for Any Reason does give you the flexibility to cancel your trip due to an increased fear of Zika, it does not protect 100% of your trip cost. Depending upon the plan, Cancel for Any Reason benefit will reimburse 50%, 70%, or 75% of your insured trip cost.
Please call us at 800-487-4772 if you have any questions about insuring against Zika related events, or the Cancel For Any Reason benefit.
