Thank God I didn't have to use the insurance. I will recommend TruTravel Super Save plan because of the good coverage and reasonable cost. The Customer Care Rep was very informative and patience. She answered all my questions.

It was great coverage for the price. I sailed on Carnival and with all that has happened with that cruise line I shopped elsewhere instead of purchasing with them and it was half the price! Fortunately I did not have to use it but it was peace of mind!

Got the information I needed for the trip. Didn't need to file a claim as nothing went wrong on the cruise.

I did not have to file a claim so I have no knowledge of whether the coverage is "good," but the coverage certainly seems comprehensive for the price, especially compared to other policies.

The coverage under the plan was adequate for my needs. This is the third time I have purchased the plan for a trip. I have never needed to file a claim.

My problem was that the price had risen considerably since I last purchased the TruTravel Super Saver plan. From January 2013 to July 2013, the price for the exact same coverage has inexplicably tripled. I will look for a different insurance for my next trip.

Even though I did not have to use it, this plan provided the reassurance I needed in the event the unforeseen would happen.
