I was very pleased with the complete coverage we had and very glad also I didn't have to utilize any of it. Would not hesitate to use this coverage again when the need arises.

I could have used my own medical plan for Alaska. I was only out of the country 2 days and someone should have recommended something cheaper. It was too costly for what I needed. Now I know differently.

    Thank you very much for your feedback. While it is true your primary health care provider may have been able to provide coverage during the U.S. portion of your trip, the Global Alert Preferred plan you purchased is a comprehensive package plan that offers much more than medical care and provides you coverage from the moment you leave your home until the moment you return back to your home. The Global Alert Preferred policy offers Trip Cancellation, Trip Interruption, Baggage Loss, Baggage Delay, Travel Delay, Emergency Medical, Emergency Medical Evacuation, Financial Default, and a Pre-Existing Condition Waiver. Additionally, premium is typically within the range of 4-10% of the trip cost and is determined by the following factors: the length of the trip, the cost of the trip, and the ages of the travelers. For future purchases or for additional questions regarding comprehensive coverage, please feel free to contact our office at 800-487-4722 where our licensed representatives would be happy to assist you.

We were fortunate enough to have no health issues on our trip,but our friend had a problem and had to see the ship's Doctor. We were all relieved that we had insurance just in case.

We boarded our flight in Chicago. The pilot made an announcement that upon landing in Chicago a bird flew into the engine. They needed to get a special ladder truck to inspect the engine for damage; and if there was, our flight would have to be canceled for safety sake. As we sat for about 2 hours on the ground, I thought what would we do if our flight was canceled? How does this trip insurance come into effect? This was a perfect time to check it out. I first called the Customer Service number, but there was a wait time before an agent could handle my call. I decided this was probably not the correct department to call in this situation so I hung up and called Claims. The man was very informative and knowledgeable. I was impressed even though my call was a what-if call. We had a few days before our cruise would leave so we might be inconvenienced, but not miss the most important part of our trip. There was no engine damage done, they restarted boarding, and we took off. As a special note, upon landing at LaGuardia in NYC an announcement was made to please allow passengers in the back of the plane to deplane first as they had to make a cruise. As these passengers were slowly making their way past us, we struck up a conversation. It was about 2:20 p.m., and they had to get their luggage and then travel to I think, Bayonne, NJ to board their ship scheduled to leave at 4:00 p.m. Even if we landed at our proper time of 1:20 p.m., they weren't going to make it. I don't know who booked their flight, but in today's low inventory/delayed flights world, you should arrive for a cruise at least 1 day before. I'll bet they didn't have insurance either.
