Very easy to purchase and covered all the items we were concerned about. Thankfully, we did not need to file a claim. I will use them for our next big vacation.

C&F Travel Insured International Trip Protector Lite Expanded
I did not use the benefits, fortunately. The trip went smooth. What I paid for, I suppose, was the peace of mind of knowing that if things went awry there would be assistance waiting. Thanks.

We did not need to use the service but we were happy we purchased it. Just knowing we had coverage gave us comfort.

Since we had no problems, it is very hard to say if it was worth it. Only if something went wrong, would one have a clue if they were really any good.

Did not have to use it, but it did offer the same premium coverages as the one the trip provider tried to sell me for $400 less....

Insurance was required by the tour company we were traveling with. Fortunately we did not have any accidents and did not have to utilize the insurance. However, someone else in the tour group did. It was reassuring to us to know we had the insurance just in case. One big thing to remember though is that this is a reimbursement policy, you have to pay for any services needed up front from your own resources, then get paid back...hopefully.

Since I did not have to file a claim, I am unable to honestly access the ease of use of claim process,but I was satisfied with the provisions that the plan offered for its cost. I would use this plan again, though.

Thankfully, I did not have any issues and did not need to use the insurance. It was nice knowing I had coverage if I needed it, especially so far from home.

We bought insurance because of an aging parent at home, as well as concern about the safety of medical treatment in S. Africa and Zimbabwe. Although we did not use the insurance, we were happy to have the coverage in case of an emergency. Next time we would opt for the medical/airlift option only.
