All good except we find the price went up because of our age although we both are in excellent health. To be fair, I expect that most insurers do this.

I bought this insurance way back last Fall 2017. I am getting older with a failing memory to what i had done or where I even put my notes. I had to go to my credit card bills to find the phone number, call and cross check what I had done. I would suggest that as trip time approaches, an email from you telling me what I had done and that I WAS insured with you would have been VERY HELPFUL! Even two or three reminders asking if I had any questions or concerns like 3 months in advance, two months before and then a week before.

Fortunately we were able to go on our trip so we did not need to use the plan. I’m assuming coverage would have been complete

Filing the claim was a bit of a hassle but, otherwise claim handled okay.

My husband and I planned a fabulous cruise that was to leave from Lisbon Portugal and end in Amsterdam with a hotel stay there for 4 nights. As we always do at the senior stage of life, we purchased insurance from "insuremytrip". I love that I can compare different plans for coverage & cost to help make a decision. We also chose the "cancel for any reason" addition to the policy. This is the first time I have ever had to make a claim on insurance, but we decided to cancel just before the final payment came due and I submitted a claim. Within about a month, we had a check for the 75% maximum reimbursement based on the terms of the plan. We were very satisfied!

Thankfully, I had no reason to use the plan while in Europe, and this complete coverage gave me great peace of mind as we traveled.

We purchased insurance for a catamaran trip in the BVI. As we started our trip there was a minor risk of a hurricane forming but it was supposed to take days before posing any threat if at all... 3 days of 7 in the operator said we had to beach the ship and we should leave the BVI because a hurricane was going to make landfall there in 4 days on our original day of departure.
We had to buy last minute tickets to get the 6 of us home. We had 2 hr direct flight on spirit and 22 hrs return flight to St Martin, Panama then to Miami and an 2 hour uber ride home. Hurricane Irma ravaged the BVI, and then followed us home to Florida.
When i went to file a claim i was denied because 1) we chose to leave BEFORE the hurricane hit (even though the island ordered an evac and the operator ordered us off) 2) Before our airline cancelled our return flight (the morning the hurricane hit spirit cancelled the flight) 3) there was only a potential threat to our home; ie if we rode it out there we couldn't make it back to shutter up our house...
So I asked in writing what should i have done and the response was that we should have waited out the storm in the BVI and they would have reimbursed us for return flights... whenever we could have gotten them. I asked should i have cancelled the trip since a tropical storm was being watched (though it wasn't a hurricane) and the answer was we wouldn't reimburse you for that since you chose to cancel before an act of nature.
So in short if a hurricane is coming your on your own unless you ride it out at your destination, then you may stand a chance of some sort of reimbursement No reimbursement for the lost flight, transfers or the emergency flights out. But have fun with no food, water or power for how ever many days before airlines resume flights.
The only positive was the catamaran provider took complete care of the crews, got them home to saftey, and without question gave us a credit for the days we missed.
