You are betting against yourself buying insurance—I am an old woman and buy insurance as a precaution. I have never used any insurance plan and think my history ought to be taken into account in the premium paid. Trip insurance at my age is very expensive. When I was younger & traveling more, I bought an annual policy.

Basically, the plan coverage was far less than I had expected. In the end we cancelled our trip at the earliets penalty deadline because of mounting EU/Italy/Covid uncertainties. We cancelled in time to avoid most penalties. We could not cancel several train tickets and resceduling was a nonstarter. Our claim was thus relatively minor (less than 5% of trip cost) and less than half of the premium paid. It seemed like a fair claim.
Lesson: Read the fine print which, it turns out, eliminated all the threats that I thought were most likely and needed to be insured.

Thank you for your feedback.
Travelex has provided the following response:
"Thank you for taking the time to post about your experience.
We empathize with your situation. It is important to remember that insurance is highly regulated and all claims are determined based on the documentation submitted and the policy details for the policy purchased. Travelex Insurance and Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance Company, the claim administrator, are required to follow the policy. The policy purchased is a Named Peril Policy, which means that any eligible reason for cancellation is listed in the policy. The policy itself does list which Named Perils would be covered (which you can view by clicking “view certificate” on the Insure My Trip website). Unfortunately, uncertainties and fears related to travel are not covered reasons under the policy (and would not be covered events for most policies).
Please contact us if you have further questions or concerns at [email protected]."Oct 05,2021

"Travel Insurance offers you some peace of mind before and during travel for many reasons. Travel insurance is highly regulated by each state Department of Insurance and the price is based on several factors: your trip cost, age, trip length, and if you want to include trip cancellation benefits.
Trip cancellation helps to protect your investment while other benefits, such as trip interruption, emergency medical and evacuation expenses, trip delay, and baggage benefits help protect you should the need arise while traveling.
While we are happy to hear that you had a safe trip and did not need to engage the insurance coverages, we also know that if an unforeseen situation had occurred; you did have valuable coverage to help protect you and your trip investment.
Travelex makes every effort to review all concerns and we hope you will consider the purchase of Travelex’s travel insurance for your next trip."
