    Dear valued customer, our optional Pet Bundle was specifically created for "fur-parents" like you! The Pet Bundle is an optional upgrade available for purchase with our Preferred and Deluxe plans. Unfortunately these plans are not available in NY yet, but hopefully they will be soon! Be sure to keep an eye out for these plans in the future, or give us a call before your next trip to review availability.

I found the plans to be confusing. I think when the plan covers a home rental in Florida, you should be able to have red tide included, as it not only impacts your activities, but also can affect your respiratory health. I thought the hurricane wordage was confusing as well. I am thankful I did not have to file for any reason. We were driving to Florida, and there was way too much info about plane reservations, delays, etc.

Had to contact my state’s Insurance Commission and the Wisconsin BBB to get fair treatment. Things are finally resolved after endless humiliation and hassle and only resolved thanks to the Insurance Commissioner and the BBB.

I had a bad experience of not “reading the fine print” and I had a weather hazard event that caused disruption in my trip and my claim was denied because I did not read the fine line of how those events are categorized. I felt it was useless policy and didn’t help me at all when I needed it.

This gave me great peace of mind.!I had a gap in my regular health coverage that coincided with my trip. Being able to purchase travel insurance meant I didn’t have to worry. Thankfully there was no need to use it, but I was glad for the peace of mind it gave!

The claim was for Trip cancellation due to illness.

The good part is that they spotted an inconsistency in the Doctor's Report and, instead of just denying the claim, they sent a clarification email with a form for the doctor to fill out. Once this form was returned to them, they paid promptly and fairly. So they actually care about their customers.

The bad part is that it took them 10 weeks just to look at the claim after I filed it. And most of that was before the Pandemic.

So expect to be treated fairly, but don't expect fast service.

I purchased the insurance just in case and we were in Los Angeles when travel things started getting shut down. Although I made it home right on time, I felt good knowing I had purchased the insurance! It just helps relieve the stress!

With my trip ending the day that Disney World decided they would close due to health concerns, I am so glad I decided on trip insurance. Had the trip been planned even a few days later I would have been out a lot of money if it weren't for insurance.

We did not have any issues with our trip other than our luggage did not arrive at the final airport when we arrived. We did receive our luggage after a day and one half. Other wise the buying process was fairly simple.
