Comprehensive plans offer the most benefits, including Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption. These plans provide the best protection for the investment you have made in your trip.
I typically buy travel insurance for coverage in case we are unable to make a trip and for medical coverage while traveling. Although most policies have additional coverage I don't put much value to them as the rules are so strict and the coverage so minimal I don't view it as a useful benefit. To my surprise I ended up submitting a claim for delayed travel after a series of flight delays and cancellations extended my arrival time by more than 12 hours and resulted in having to be rerouted to a different destination. The policy covered all my costs for prepaid hotel, transfers, and tours that I missed. It was relatively easy to file the claim. AXA said it would take 30 days to process and on the 30th day I received a direct deposit for the full amount of my claim. Very pleased with the result. It is important to ready the fine print! For example, this policy requires filing a claim within 7 days (because we were in SC we had 30 days) which is really short- we wouldn't even have returned from the trip by then. And the delay had to be for 12 hours to qualify.

Too expensive and unnecessary as it turned out. I have never bought trip insurance before and it's just a waste of money. I only bought it because of the risk of covid interrupting my trip.

travel insurance is boring unless something breaks. fortunately everything went well. Travelex had lower price than comparable plans so coverage was worth it

It's insurance. Fortunately, I did not need it. But I have a travel companion who did on a different trip and between her insurance and mine, we suffered no out-of-pocket expenses. That experience confirmed my position that I will not travel without it, particularly the medical and evacuation coverage. I always refer InsureMyTrip.com to anyone who asks me about trip insurance.

I did shop around for the best deal and AIG Travel Guard seemed to meet all my requirements and for a reasonable price. I hope if I ever had to place a claim that I would still feel this way.

We didn’t get to use the insurance (which is the idea!) but it gave us peace of mind all throughout our trip and for that I believe it’s worth it! We did have trip delays and cancellations in our trip to Italy and C&F was fast and efficient in processing our claim... we have an upcoming trip to Croatia and this is the same travel insurance we used!!! Recommended!!!

Travel insurance is paramount when you are traveling overseas because there is no way of knowing if or when an accident or injury will occur and the medical costs associated with that event can be very expensive. Having insurance to cover those costs at a reasonable price is just good common sense and well worth the expense and peace of mind. Thank you Generali Global Assistance for providing comprehensive coverage at an affordable rate.

I found General Global to offer a fair price and a user friendly way to apply for coverage. The plan offered coverage for the most important aspects of any trip. When I had to modify the plan to include a destination the agents were responsive and helpful. I would use this coverage for future trips.
