Because I already have a full-time plan for emergency medical evacuation, it would have been good to find a plan that didn't necessarily bundle that in with the coverage I really needed.

Thank Goodness I have not had to use any claims because the trips went well but when I had any questions I called (InsureMyTrip) customer service and they are AWESOME. Very happy to answer any questions or concerns. I have used InsureMyTrip.com 4 times and found the coverage, prices and easiness very, very good.

We had a death in the family right before we left. We could not get any info on whether we would be covered to leave one day later or not because the person that handled that aspect was not available until the day we were scheduled to leave.

It would have been nice if I had received confirmation letter from your company, however, it never arrived and I was concerned throughout my trip that if something happened I did not even have a contact number or any information available to give those attending to me.

    Your confirmation was emailed to you on the day of purchase. It may have gone into your spam or junk folder. You did have coverage.
