Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
I called in to Insure My Trip a few times. While I never got the same person twice, they obviously kept good records and I was always able to get my question answered quickly without starting over. Very friendly, patient and efficient reps. Felt they were truly trying to meet my need vs. "sell me something". Will insure the next trip sooner to offset preexisting condition issues. Daughter had issues with her back AFTER we booked the trip but BEFORE we took out insurance so she couldn't be covered. Would use again. Simple and straightforward.
Teresa M. would recommend this plan to a friend or relative.

Fortunately I didn't have to use the plan but I am sure it would cover necessary expenses.
Thank you

Thankfully, I didn't need to use the plan for its main purpose -- emergency medical and trip coverage. However, my flight and luggage were both significantly delayed - events supposedly covered by the plan. I contacted customer support and although they were responsive, they provided absolutely zero actual material help in either speeding up delivery of the delayed luggage or providing any compensation related to the delays.

I did not have to file a claim, so I am not really qualified to give an honest review.

The best part of the insurance is that I did not have to use it. A
woman on our trip fell and broke her arm and sprained her ankle.
She was in a wheelchair for over a week. I am not sure if she had any insurance
