We made several changes to our itinerary before departure and we were able to easily make the changes necessary to the insurance, with no increase in cost. This was greatly appreciated.

    Thank you for your feedback on the policy. After a policy has been purchased, amendments can typically be made prior to the original departure date. To request a change, please contact our Customer Care department with the order number and let one of our representatives know what you need to adjust. The representative will update your policy to see if these changes will affect your premium. If you are increasing the trip cost or adding days to the length of your trip, you may need to pay an additional charge for the additional coverage.

We did not have to use this plan, thank goodness. I think all of these reviews are useless unless you file a claim. (As I found out when I had to file a claim with ANOTHER company.)

I am basing my review on price, and assuming I would have gotten what the policy said if I had needed it.
