Very good plan for the price. I never bothered with travel insurance before "something happened." A little research found this company who are now my insurers of choice.

We were, unfortunately, unable to go on our cruise due to a family emergency. We filed the claim with Nationwide and received a check in less than two weeks! Prompt, courteous service!!

Thank goodness we had a great time and did not have to make a claim on our insurance. I did feel secure, however, knowing that I had the plan. It was comprehensive and value priced.

Fortunately we did not have to use the plan but it seemed to be better than the one offered by Viking Cruises and comparable to a plan we had actually used in the past.
