I must say that for the price it was very reassuring to have the coverage. Several years ago I did have a small claim for strep throat on the cruise, and they reimbursed me within a week of submitting my claim. Please don't hesitate, Nationwide is a great company.

We did not have to use the Nationwide Mutual insurance, but it was nice to know that we had it. My hope would have been that everything we needed would have been covered.

Great peace of mind provided by the travel insurance, knowing that there is coverage for unforeseen events. InsureMyTrip always gives me the options to quickly find the right protection, and at a price I can afford. Thanks, Again!

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
When I made my reservations, I was not thinking about what could happen between the time I purchased my trip and the departure date. All I knew was that I was going and that was it. 1 month before the scheduled vacation my mother had a stroke and was going through a slow recovery. I decided to check into insurance and found this insurance. The price only $29 more than I would have paid had I bought it right away. Buying insurance is important because anything can happen and the cost was worth it so I could sleep at night.

    Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are pleased to learn that the policy provided you with peace of mind. For comprehensive plans offering trip cancellation, coverage will be provided for unforeseen medical emergencies that occur after the effective date of coverage.

I have bought plans to cover three or four reasons that a trip would need to be canceled, but paid four times the price of this plan! And I purchased this plan which covered all of my concerns! I cannot begin to tell you the peace of mind I got from this,
