Always travel with third party insurance when traveling out of the country. So far I have been totally satisfied with my decision on insurance purchases.

I would recommend Insuremytrip as a great place to compare and purchase plans. I think there is no way to evaluate the coverage until you actually have to file a claim. Then the level of cooperation, responsiveness and ease of process is what matters.... Fortunately I can't answer any of these questions.

We were very impressed with the speed and courtesy extended to us when we had to make a claim. We had to be emergently evacuated from the Himalayas which interrupted our incredible trek. TravelexClaims covered everything we asked for. After this experience, we will use travel insurance always!!!

I bought this plan because it was one of the few Primary payer plans. I didn't have to use the plan. None of them are what I call reasonably priced but they're all pretty pricey these days.

I haven't had to use travel insurance yet, but for the coverage this provided for the dollar amount, I figured this would be a solid investment. I'm happy I didn't have to use it though!

Although I didn't end up using the travel insurance, the Travelex people were very friendly and helpful. I bought the insurance on a Sunday night and my husband hurt his leg Monday afternoon, the very next day. I called Travelex to make sure that it was covered, in case we had to cancel the trip. The person, whom I talked to, assured me that it was and e-mailed me the forms that I would need in case we had to cancel the trip, so that I would have them when my husband went to his doctor's appointment.

As it turned out, we were able to go on the trip, but I was very pleased with the customer service from Travelex. They were very friendly with me on the telephone.

I will continue to buy Travelex insurance for my other trips.
