I find InsureMyTrip's way of presenting their material easy to follow and use as a cost comparison among the many companies to choose from.

Fortunately we did not encounter any problems and did not have to avail ourselves of the insurance. InsuremyTrip's employees who answer the phone are polite and quite knowledgeable.

We traveled to Europe and had peace of mind knowing that InsureMyTrip would be there if we needed them.

We're not sure how effective this travel insurance is, given that we did not need it. However, we did learn through this process that it is better to purchase such insurance upon booking travel, thus such insurance policies are more exhaustive in their coverage, such as coverage for pre-existing conditions, etc.
