Knowing we had the security of protection while abroad was well worth the cost of the insurance.

I can't say much as I didn't need to use it. The best test is when you to use it. It had everything I wanted on it for coverage at a reasonable price.

For $130 it provided reassurance should any of our plans have had to be cancelled/altered....and thankfully that was never the case. I can't see why anyone wouldn't insure their trip; especially w/all the up front money due on a cruise and the excursions they book!

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
This is the second tome I have used InsureMyTrip to purchase travel insurance. Tru Travel covered all the important aspects of my trip and offered a higher level of medical, along with a quite generous trip delay/travel interruption, and baggage delay coverage. We did not need it, but we had great peace of mind knowing we would be covered from the time we left our front door until our return
