I had to file a claim on a vacation package that was delayed over 19 hours from our original start time. It took about six weeks for them to settle. Both the companion I went with, and myself received the same amount back, but I don’t think I was reimbursed for the $89 in food that I had to spend due to being delayed on our vacation .

I was sick and could not go on my trip. We had to cancel. We filed a claim with all documents and received our due insurance payment for our coverage. The only improvement I can suggest is better communication about the timing it takes to process. There is one company that handles claims for multiple insurance companies, so they are overwhelmed. I didn't even get a notification that my claim was processed. I only knew when I received a check in the mail. Other than that, everything was as promised and I will use them again.

While I didn’t need to use the insurance it was great knowing we had it … just in case. I was very pleasantly surprised at the cost for all that was covered. I’ll be purchasing again in July for another trip!

I recommend Nationwide Travel Insurance. I had to file a claim due to Delta Airlines damaging my luggage and Nationwide processed the claim and reimbursed me for the luggage. I will be using Nationwide Travel Insurance for all my vacations.

I purchased this policy for my husband and myself on a recent cruise. We didn't need to file a claim. As such, all I can truly say is that I'm satisfied with the price I paid for the coverage options I selected. However, I feel that asking me to rate a plan I actually didn't use is somewhat misleading to future clients.

Glad we didn't need to use it. Will come back to you for our next trip.

I got sick just a few days after the "review period" was over, and tried to cancel the policy, since I would NOT be taking the trip. This happened the first week of Sep. The canceled trip was for Nov 1. I could not get a penny back. Emailed several times. $472 gone! If you might get sick, you must do it within ten days of purchasing the plan. No sympathy. Ridiculous!

Knowing I had my Nationwide Insurance policy available if needed for my lengthy trip was a great feeling. I trust in Insure My Trip and Nationwide.
