Thankfully, didn't have to use the plan, but felt comfortable that it was there in case I needed it. Did think it was more expensive than necessary, however.

We have never had to use our trip insurance before. However, before we were able to go on the trip my husband had open heart surgery. American Express Insurance employees were very helpful and upon submitting required paperwork we were promptly reimbursed.

As always, an insurance plan is something you would prefer avoiding using. Ease of mind is well worth the value for money, especially so when out in a safari camp, as we were.

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
Luckily, the insurance plan was not actually used at all, so really it is rather hard for me to "review".
Still, the rep who helped me on the phone was knowledgeable and explained all of my options and the associated expenses. I couldn't ask for more than that.

One never knows how good an insurance policy is until a claim is filed. I didn't have to file a claim. I can only attest that the policy was reasonably priced and covered what I needed. I liked that I was able to buy it a bit at a time since I didn't know what my final cost would be until 45 days before the trip began.

WorldTrips Atlas International
The email responses take too long. It's supposed to be an international plan but it does not account for ways for people overseas to get in touch. I twice requested a phone call back via email as international calls to the 800-number based in the USA are expensive and there's no way to call collect from a cell phone. However both times I didn't receive an email back until 1-2 days later and no one ever called me back as requested. Thankfully there was no emergency and i decided I could live without the follow-up. In theory it covers the basics in case of an emergency abroad. In practice, I haven't had to put it to the test.

C&F Travel Insured International Trip Protector Lite Expanded
Unfortunately several personal items disappeared from Shumbulala Safari Lodge. Travel Insured acted promptly and fairly and my claim was settled.
I think I should advise Trip Advisor.

I was happy to have the plan in the event I had an accident or trip interruption. Felt that I had a reasonable plan with costs I could live with.
