One never knows when they are planning to travel if they will need it (hopefully won't) and we were glad we did have it. We have a son in a wheel chair that went with us and we felt that we needed that extra peace of mind that if something should happen, we would have the extra care we might need.

Travelex Travel Basic
We felt more comfortable being insured for our trip to Hawaii due to the expense for the trip from the east coast. The insurance allowed us to make a stop in San Francisco for several nights, which made the jet lag so much easier. It was a good feeling knowing that we were protected in case of any emergency. We met a family of four who missed their connecting flight to Oahu, they did get a flight to Maui but their luggage was lost. They had insurance which paid for their overnight expenses in Maui and then transportation to Hawaii. Insurance is a good thing, we will consider insuremytrip (Travelex) on future trips.

We did not take the original trip. The travel supplier had overbooked the cruise. They have put us on the same trip next year. We transferred the insurance to that trip. Very pleased with InsureMyTrip, as usual.

Not much to say. As trip unchangeable costs have escalated so has the cost of insurance both as a percentage and absolute. Mostly wasted money I guess until I need it. The insurance companies must make a lot from this.
