Travelex Travel Basic
Very helpful to talk with your advisor by phone, he helped me select the optimal package for our trip, just a few dollars more than the airline was asking just to cover the flight alone

Since, thankfully, I had no need to file a claim, I can't attest to anything about the plan except that I had it. But, as usual insuremytrip.com was helpful in finding the right plans for our needs at a reasonable price.

Didn't have a need to use the policy although my suitcase didn't arrive and had to be delivered to our hotel the next day.

This is the second time my wife and I have used InsureMyTrip. We would not take a cruise without insurance coverage. It's a great value!

Travelex Travel Basic
A friend who had been abroad suggested travel insurance for my Canada trip. At first I thought it would be a waste of money. But after seeing the reasonable price, opted for the Travelex Travel Basic plan. Unfortunately, I had to avail myself of the insurance due to a minor medical issue. Upon my return, I sent Travelex the original medical treatment records and receipts. A few weeks later, I received a check from Travelex fully covering my costs. You can be sure that this is a company that stands behind their plans.

It gave me the security when traveling that if I needed it, I had it. Thankfully, I didn't need it.

If you have coverage for part of your trip through your credit card then you should only take coverage for things that aren't covered. In our case trip interruption or cancellation, and baggage loss or delay were covered so we needed only medical coverage.

We have always used Travelex and have recommended it to friends who are taking their first cruise next year.
So far we have never had to make a claim, but better to have the insurance and not use it than to need it and not have it.

We traveled to New England and Nova Scotia one week before Hurricane Irene. Insurance gives us the peace of mind that takes the worry out of travel.
