One of our flights was canceled. The policy from Nationwide would not pay for the lost day of our vacation. The airline canceled the flight and we lost a nights lodging expenses. A canceled flight was not a covered interruption. I am very disappointed.

Purchasing the insurance was easy. Since we had no reason to file a claim it's impossible to know whether to be satisfied with the company or not.

I took out insurance but did not use it. I believe Nationwide is a reputable company so we felt confident whilst on our trip.

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company Essential Plan provided all the coverage I look for when purchasing a Travel Insurance Plan. The Plan not only covers the Trip Cancellation, Interruption, and Lost Luggage, but also the more important coverage of High Limits for Medical and Medical Evacuation at a very good price.

It was very easy to purchase an insurance plan from Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company. This is the second time we have purchased a plan from them. It is very easy to do and at a reasonable price. The insurance we purchased seemed like it would have been the coverage we would need if a problem occurred. We were fortunate enough that there was no need to put it to use.

The plan seems good. I didn't need to file a claim so.i'm not really sure about the fine print. But it gave me peace of mind and the price was very reasonable.

With the ZIKA virus concerns in Mexico, and me going to visit my pregnant daughter there, I was unhappy that the coverage did not allow me to cancel my trip so that she could come home to the States immediately.

Thank you for your feedback on the policy. The only benefit that can be used to cancel a trip due to the fear of contracting Zika virus is Cancel for Any Reason.
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.Mar 19,2016
