I paid extra $1,300 for my flight from London to Manila with Air China because my original flight with Shenzhen Airlines ($999) was postponed for the next day. It was a Sunday, their office was closed, have tried calling them, I even went to the airport but Shenzhen Air didn't have any representative there. I wanted to explain to them that I won't make it to my connecting flight in Bao'an China if I take their postponed flight.
Nationwide paid only $600 for the new flight that I paid after Shenzhen messed up everything for mine and my husband's flight.

This plan was a waste to purchase. We missed a port on our cruise due to a national strike in France and never even went to France. Nationwide insurance would not count missing a port as trip interruption even though it was beyond our control . The cruiseline made the call, not us. And it was the main reason why we booked this trip. I had to go back and forth with them for months, providing documentation and receipts just to have them reject our claim. It was very frustrating. I'm considering just not buying insurance next time because it's not honored.

Luckily we did not need to use the plan. We have had to use other plans on previous trips and we have purchased every one from Insure My Trip.

I'm glad I did not have to use the plan not sure how hard it would be but it's nice to know there is some help if things went south

It was nice to have a reasonably priced plan that still offered a good amount of dollar one medical coverage and emergency evacuation coverage.

We are Progressive Insurance clients and have had no need to claim but felt comfortable enough to trust our choice in Nationwide.

I did not have to file a claim, so I don't have direct knowledge of how that goes. But there were several times during the trip when I consciously thought about the protection this policy afforded us and relaxed into enjoying my trip all the more.
