we didn't have any need to file a claim; therefore we don't know how really good it is.

It served the "In case something happens" protection and everything worked well during my most exciting and adventurous trip to Australia, so I am perfectly happy with the coverage and costs balance.

Our trip was to Egypt in late December 2010 and early January 2011. Our trip was fantastic, with no problems, and we did not need to use any of the benefits from the insurance. But when, 10 days after we left the country, Egypt erupted in revolution, I was really, really glad we had the insurance. We could have very easily been caught up in the turmoil.

Coverage was good value for the premium paid. Fortunately we didn't have a reason to contact the insurance company so don't know how good the customer service/claim settlement procedures are.

I would recommend this coverage for those who do not have similar coverage by a credit card. In if they do have credit card coverage, then a scaled down, trip delay, and medical evacuation plan would be more cost effective.

I always recommend TruTravel Super Saver to my friends and I hope none of us have you use it. It is just a nice peace of mind to have. I know that if anything would come up you would be there.
