Travelex gives us the peace of mind, for the right price, that we are looking for when traveling. Especially important is the medical coverage and evacuation insurance.

Travelex Travel Basic
This was the first time we have ever needed travel insurance, after a cruise our flight was canceled and we had to drive to an alternate airport to get home, all of our expenses were covered...we are very pleased with Travelex and will purchase it again for our next trip.
Gary D. would recommend this plan to a friend or relative.

I like Travelex and InsureMyTrip due to its low prices and ease in purchasing. Fortunately I have never had the opportunity to file a claim

The plan is ok but these plans are hard to compare. People want to be covered if they need a medical evacuation or if they miss a flight or luggage is lost or are injured. Why is it so difficult to make the plan clear so there aren't any surprises?

they don't cover reward flights/ tickets purchased with certificates to which I cannot provide receipts. Dissapointed at this. I provided with the reservation and cancellation but they say these type of flights were not covered...that is not stated in the contract anywhere!

I, thankfully, never had to use it, but the need for a plan is always there. I had the rental car rider, but as most people, really do not understand it and how it actually would apply in a accident, especially in Europe, which has different coverage needs in different countries.
Buying travel/vacation insurance is easy through Travelex, and I doubt that I would leave home without it.
