Global Travel Shield Deluxe
The cost seems slightly high for someone my age who is in good health, but I can see that you have to cover those who are at higher risk.

InsureAssist
TravCan Premier
Although I didn't need to make a claim against this plan. It was reassuring to know that it was available to me should the need arise. I would purchase another InsureAssist TravCan Premier Plan for another trip.

Fortunately, we had no occasion to make a claim, but the assurance was well worth the price! We appreciated the ability to tailor your offerings to our needs.

Worldwide Trip Protector Lite
Given we are 68 and 76 in great physical shape, we felt we paid a premium price ( too high) for us as individuals. Our cost combined was over $1,000. We did "buy peace of mind" which, I guess, is incalculable. We had a wonderful 2-week trip to Japan, with mostly elderly, ages 60-80)...no one had need of medical care.
Is there any way to create an insurance plan that will discount for seniors who get a clean bill of health from their physicians, as we take no meds. and have no physical limitations. I have to say Travel Insured rates were the lowest.... I did like having the rates on one site which made shopping easy; also, your phone people were very knowledgeable and helpful.

The trip included a
tour
Seven Corners
Roundtrip Choice
I decided to get travel insurance with Seven Corners because the insurance offered by SmarTours travel company didn't quite meet my needs. Then my trip to Japan, April 2011,--which was insured by Seven Corners--was canceled by SmarTours. The SmarTours company offered full refund--including the cost of their travel insurance--to all participants. However, Seven Corners basically said--sorry no refund (!)--but you can transfer insurance fee to another trip--IF you come up with the new travel dates before the date the Japan trip would have taken place--which was only a couple weeks away! Fortunately I had a cruise coming up in Sept 2011 and hadn't decided on insurance yet--so was able to transfer the payment to that trip. If I didn't have that trip already planned I would have lost the entire cost of the insurance on a trip that had been canceled (by the travel company--not me!) and no insurance claim filed. Perhaps this is standard procedures with most travel insurance companies--I don't know. Just something to think about when deciding to get a different insurance than the one offered by a tour company...

Each policy does have a specified amount of time called 'free look period' in which you can return your policy for a refund of premium. In this case it was a 10 day free look period. Once you are outside of that time frame the policy premium is considered earned by the insurance companies. There are situations like these where they will allow the insured to move the policy to another trip.Jul 13,2011
