Like most insurance plans, you pay for something that more than likely you wont have to use, but that's the security of knowing that you're covered if something happens :)

Seems odd to write such a positive review when I didn't use it at all but I travel alone and simply having this comprehensive yet reasonably priced plan gave me enormous peace of mind.

While I didn't have to file a claim, I did fall at the Pyramids in Egypt hurting my knee. It took several days to heal, but I was glad I had the insurance in case further medical treatment was needed.

Having insurance is like having a doctor or lawyer. You need it but don't want to use it. Fortunately, we had no problems and didn't use it, so were quite happy.

I was satisfied with the plan, but disappointed with the service. I called because my flight was delayed and I missed my connecting flight as a result thinking the concierge would help change my ticket. I was given another number to call and still did not get help. I stood in line for over 3 hours to get my ticket changed when I reached my connection airport. I should have been able to avoid that wait in line.

The only missing feature that was not needed was coverage for cost of airfare & related expenses if potential political unrest had required earlier evacuation. Let me know if this feature is there and I just didn't see it. It was a fabulous trip and I highly recommend Egypt to others. The people generally are warm and friendly.l

Never had a claim, so it is hard to know if this plan was good, better or best. I will use TravelEx again.

Good plan for a reasonable price. Process was fairly simple. However, I think most of these insurance plans are overpriced.

There are almost too many options. I was never entirely sure what was and wasn't covered. Maybe if as you selected options you could ask specific questions such as "if this happens this plan will provide the following coverages." Having said that, it was a great site and I will use it again.

I'm an insurance broker so the purchase of trip insurance was not an extraneous purchase for me - it was second nature. I am used to comparing policies and premiums - also second nature - and I found that Insuremytrip and CSA provided ease of comparison and pricing, and ease of purchase and of confirmation. Your policy can be delivered by e-mail. Best to purchase at least couple of weeks prior to your departure date.
I returned from Egypt about a month before the revolts happened. I did not need to use the insurance since I apparently planned my trip under a lucky star - but people I know were there when the US was telling travelers to get the heck out of Egypt. If anyone doubts the wisdom of purchasing trip insurance, look at the provisions for "Travel Delay". The affordable plan from CSA that I purchased would have provided protection up to an amount of $1,000 - which I'm sure the folks who eventually were flown to Istanbul (on their own dime) and then left to make further arrangements back to the U.S. would certainly have welcomed.
Enjoy your trip! (And buy the insurance; because, as we all know - stuff happens!)
