The trip included a
cruise
Seven Corners
Roundtrip
We had a potential medical claim which never materialized. I contacted a representative who initially gave me misinformed information concerning coverage. It was a most disconcerting experience. Cost of coverage was an issue.

AIG Travel
Travel Guard Gold
I'm unable to properly evaluate AIG Travel Guard Gold's delivery of services since I did not have a need to request assistance. I view this as a good outcome, however. Since I couldn't submit my comment without choosing some star ratings, I took the middle of the road.

We feel comfortable having insurance just in case even if we do not use it.

Preferred
I generally do not buy Trip Insurance but was required to in this instance by travel provider. How can you fairly judge an insurance plan without having filed a claim to determine its reliability? I chose this plan from InsureMyTrip comparisons strictly based on cost/coverage without consideration for performance which is always an unknown in insurance coverage. I sometimes feel like the most insured person in the world still left with holes of vulnerability.

Travelex
Travel Basic
This is a review of the Travelex Travel Basic plan. I should say I'm very skeptical of insurance companies. I also believe that the only real evaluation of an ins company can be made if you try to actually file a claim. Any other review is not based on real information.
As marketed, it seemed to have the emergency health care coverage I needed for a ski trip to Europe (my girl friend did not have any type of health insurance, so I thought it prudent to get something).
I talked to a representative on the phone to try to confirm what was covered and what was not. The agent was very patient and answered my questions fairly completely. I called back to talk to another representative to confirm what the first had told me. I got different, less satisfying answers. This is what my experience with insurance companies has been, not everyone interprets things the same. I crossed my fingers and purchased it anyway, as it seemed a fair price compared to other comparable insurance available.
I went on the trip, nothing happened, no claim needed.
So I can only say that their sales office will answer the phone, I can't say if they would actually ever pay a claim. So I'm rating them 3 stars.

Generali Global Assistance
Premium
It still seems to me that all of these plans have too many loopholes and somewhat difficult to sort through, although the phone assistance is very good. Like most insurance, we never use it; lucky, I guess.

GeoBlue
Voyager Choice
Since I didn't have to file a claim, I really don't have a basis for evaluating GeoBlue's service.

The trip included a
tour
American Express
Classic
My flight was canceled at midnight. I called the toll free number to ask if a replacement flight on another airlines would be covered. I was told to call back in 7 hours when the office opened as no one there could interpret my policy for me, all they could do was find a doctor for me or put me in touch with an airlines. So next time I have to find a policy where the "24 hour assistance" isn't a lie.

I didn't have any reason to access anything so I really can't say much.

It's difficult to comment on a plan that didn't require making a claim. I would like to see a plan that offers a full refund, or at least a full credit toward another similar trip, if an insured simply decides to cancel the trip for no reason other than a change of mind.

Good morning Ms. Gunning,
I’m sorry that you’re upset but I listened to the phone call that you referenced in your post and while I did hear the representative give you incorrect information, I also heard him apologize and advise as to the correct benefits immediately afterwards. The representative was also very accommodating in advising of locations of medical facilities that were at your disposal.
Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance and we’ll be happy to help you.
