Simple, easy to obtain. Cost was very good. Great coverage. Great reviews online. Glad I never had to use them but would get this insurance again.

Fortunately I did not have to use the policy. It was less expensive than the insurance sold by the cruise line.

I had a medical emergency while on an Alaskan Cruise. Getting a response from the company (how to file a claim, required documentation, etc.) was kind of slow, 2-3 weeks to answer an e-mail, but the claim was paid with no issues. Nationwide had the best price for my needed coverage. Overall a great value.

Unfortunately my trip was interrupted with the flu. We were restricted to our stateroom for two days.
This insurance paid for all medical costs on the ship as well as two days of the ship's fare while we were restricted.
Very pleased with the plan. It took a bit over 30 days to receive payment, but that's to be expected with any insurance plan.

The only drawback to this plan was that it took five weeks to process the claim. But the claim was processed fairly and easily. I'll buy this the next time.

Thank you for confirming that Nationwide processed your claim fairly and easily. Usually Nationwide takes less than 30 days to process a claim except during hurricane season. The Atlantic hurricane system ranges from Jun 1, 2018 – Nov 30, 2018 for storms originating in the Atlantic Ocean. In addition, the Pacific Ocean has also had a very busy year with the first tropical depression recorded on May 15th. When you add all the claims activity from the California fires, you will see a more lengthy claim process at this time of year.Sep 25,2018

It is hard to say whether a plan is good unless you have to file a claim, which I didn't. Therefore, the ratings are only related to the purchasing of the plan and not the quality of the company, the coverage, customer service or other important issues.
