Unfortunately, my wife experienced a potentially urgent medical issue during our trip, causing us to leave our tour group activities for a full day while seeking medical treatment. Berkshire Hathaway (the underwriter for the plan) processed our claim for out-of-pocket expenses (taxis', busfare, and additional meal costs) plus the pro-rata value of a full day of the tour (for both of us) in a "no questions asked" and very prompt manner. (Because we were in the UK's National Health System, no medical expenses were incurred for doctors visits or medications). I would definitely purchase the policy again.

These real value of these plans depends on whether or not it is necessary to use them. They do provide peace of mind, but since we didn't need to file a claim, we can't comment on the quality of the plan.

As with all insurances, one hopes it never needs to be used but it certainly provided the peace of mind for which it was intended. I would definitely get it again for any future trips.

    Thank you for your 5 star review. Since you have not purchased the policy for the May trip, we have emailed you a quote.

Easy to give this Plan high marks since I did not submit a claim. I have no idea how the Plan would actually perform in that event.. It could have been anywhere from wonderfully responsive to a complete nightmare to resolve. I will never know.

Unfortunately had to file a claim due to snow storm on the east coast (all airports closed). Despite the problems, travelex did not compound them, easy to deal with (2 phone calls and a claim form). Refreshing to have a company do what they promise.
