I felt very comfortable knowing that I had your insurance while I was on my trip. It was a great price considering my age group. I would use your services again.

This is the first time I looked to the web for travel insurance. I was very pleased--the coverage was great and it cost less than what I would have paid through my travel agency or my credit card!! I've been over paying for 10 years!!!

Got my check today (3-6-2013) and insurance did exactly as they advertised. We buy this insurance in case we need a medical evacuation and it is priced well for what we need. Will continue to buy this coverage and would recommend to others. LB

It was reassuring to know that we were covered if an emergency caused us to cancel out trip at the last minute, and we would not lose the cost of our trip.

Luckily, we didn't need to file a claim for our travels so I can't really discuss the aspect of actually having a claim processed. We were simply at ease knowing we were covered in the unlikely event of a cancelled trip, etc. The price we paid was just the right amount for our sense of security on the trip.
