i dudn’t need to file a claim but my review is based on the availability of the plan information, cost, and the customer service. I’ve used InsureMyTrip during several cruises and even though I have never needed to file a claim, I would recommend this plan to others.

We didn't have to use this, but knowing we had it added a layer of protection and ease of mind if we did. Too many people think they don't need trip insurance (credit card benefits don't always cover what you need), but it could make the difference in a great trip or one that turns into a disaster, both physically and financially. (I do not work in the insurance industry.)

Never had to file a claim, but knowing that we were covered gave us comfort when issues came up.

Fortunately we did not use the insurance. That makes it hard to say if it was reliable.

This insurance was reasonable and competitive in price, and provided the needed coverage. However, when our total trip amount dropped substantially well before the trip date, due to a reduction in ticket prices, the company was totally unwilling to adjust our insurance price accordingly. We were forced to insure our trip for twice the needed amount. I realize that information is buried in their fine print, but we did not appreciate the lack of understanding and flexibility the company operates under. I would never use this company for my travel needs again.

Did not have any bad situations, but I felt comfortable by having the insurance. We have seen some people that did not purchase a plan but had some troubles where they would use coverage, like cancelled hotel reservation before the cruise, broken shoes, wet floor accidents on the ship, etc...

"All premium is non-refundable after a ten (10) day review period. In the event the premium paid for coverage is less than the required premium for coverage, benefits will be paid in direct proportion of the actual amount paid to the required premium due."
You are certainly able to request changes to your policy any time prior to your departure date, but a refund would not be provided if the change resulted in a decrease in premium.
Please feel free to call Customer Care at 800-487-4722 if you have any further questions.
