Travelex Travel Basic
The day before I was to fly out to Fort Lauderdale to board a cruise ship, we had a big snow storm. I called to find out what I had to do if my flight was grounded and could not make it to my cruise ship on time. The service representative was very helpful and kind. It gave me a great deal of peace of mind to know they were there and ready to help. As it turns out, I did get out on time and had a wonderful cruise.

I had to cancel a trip due to medical reasons. Once I was able to provide all the required documentation via email, the refund was direct deposited to my account within one week. It was a very simple process, very efficient, and excellent response time.

cruise
Travelex Travel Basic
We were covered for a cruise with a 2 hour flight from our hometown to/from the cruiseport. We were to fly in the morning of the cruise. The day before we were to leave, our flight was cancelled for the next morning due to predicted uber cold weather. The airline put us on a flight that evening, so we were forced to stay in a hotel near the cruiseport. The insurance covered the cost of the hotel. The thing I'd like to point out is that I'd purchased the insurance for the original date. The insurance company was able to think outside the box and cover our hotel, even though the date wasn't within the original time frame of the trip. Kudos to them! The claim took about a week to process once the company had my documentation. Refund is by check.

The best thing about getting insurance is when you don't need it - but know that it was available.

This was the most we ever paid for insurance; however, the trip to Israel was not inexpensive. We always purchase travel insurance through this site and will again for our next trip
