I did not need to make a claim so I don't know how well they would actually perform or if they would pay up?

Don't know what to say. I didn't have to use it, but we have used it for past trips. It seems to be a good plan.

We have used Nationwide for our last two trips. Due to flight delays on our first trip, we had to overnight in Miami and Nationwide covered all of the cost with no hassles. I highly recommend! However, if you have a flight delay it helps to keep all of your boarding passes to use for documentation of the flight changes. Boarding pass for the flight missed and pass for the rebooked flight.
