Fortunately I have not had to make a claim! I have used Insure my trip many times. I love to deal them. With their knowledge I feel tat I have all the coverage I need to travel and not worry about a thing. I feel that I am taken care of. I have peace of mind in knowing that I have the necessary insurance to cover whatever comes up. I can travel, relax and enjoy!!!

Because a family member is in the military and that life is always uncertain, I had to get "cancel for any reason" insurance, which was a little more expensive than the regular type. As it turned out, he didn't get to go so when we returned, I had him fill out all the forms to get a refund. The problem wasn't with the insurance--it was with the people I spoke with at this company. They really weren't very nice, I thought. When I called to check on the status, they said it would take at least a month after they got all the papers. That was ok, but the tone of their voice could have been better. We finally got a refund, which I do appreciate, but this company needs some training on how to talk to their customers.

The plan is O.K., but IMO just a bit overpriced. I've never had a problem, or claim, and have always bought Global Alert, but I'm going to look around in the future.

While we didn't need to use the coverage it was good to know we had it available. The cost was very good for what was covered and we would not hesitate to use this coverage again.

I spent a lot of time reviewing available travel insurance companies and plan before choosing global alert. Global alert had the plan with the best fit for me at competitive pricing. One recommendation I would make is to provide clearer information on what to do if you are in a foreign country and need to contact an agent - the underwriting isn't organized very well in the plan. It would also be helpful to describe in detail what responsibilities the traveler has if on a cruise - I found out later that the cruise medical staff actually has the right to make decisions about your care in an emergency, so I may not have been able to follow the procedures in the plan anyway. I would also have liked to have some email communication with travel health tips. Overall, I thankfully did not have to use the plan and was satisfied with the terms and knowing I would have coverage if I needed it.

I did not need to make a claim on this insurance but was happy with the purchase. I chose this insurance specifically because it allowed for trip cancellations for work emergencies. Thankfully, my husband didn't have a work emergency but it was nice to know we were covered if he did.

In the wake of our return from our cruise during the weekend of Hurricane Irene, it was comforting to know that we were sufficiently covered by Global Alert. Fortunately we had a wonderful cruise, and no interruptions in our travel plans back home to Ohio.
