I'm so glad I had this travel insurance in place. A few days before our trip I was diagnosed with a rare cancer. This was a complete shock as I was in great health. I remember telling the agent that I'd have to be dead not to take this trip, it was such an important event for us, a real "bucket list" thing. Fortunately, my doctors all agreed that taking the trip was perfectly fine and we could deal with the needed surgery afterwards. The peace of mind this policy gave me was invaluable, even though I did not end up needing to make a claim.

Very dissatisfied with the Nationwide coverage. They used a "fine print" detail to deny my claim. The travel company I used closed its business and my trip was canceled. But the company has not filed for bankruptcy and that was the excuse used to deny the claim. I provided ample documentation of the business closure but that was insufficient to approve the claim. I would never recommend Nationwide to anyone.

The price was right, coverage good and best part: we didn’t need it. It provided peace of mind.

Again it was nice to have it along but NOT have to use it. A member of our tour was hospitalized during our tour and they did use their travel insurance.

Unfortunately my trip was interrupted with the flu. We were restricted to our stateroom for two days.
This insurance paid for all medical costs on the ship as well as two days of the ship's fare while we were restricted.
Very pleased with the plan. It took a bit over 30 days to receive payment, but that's to be expected with any insurance plan.

I’d actually like a plan with less coverage. For instance, I don’t need extra health coverage abroad.
