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.
Our return flight from our Scotland coach tour was cancelled due to weather, and the airline couldn't fly us out until the next morning. We stayed in a hotel, and I submitted that cost plus a small amount for food for that evening. Although we had to submit a lot more documents than I thought was necessary for this small claim (compared to the cost of the policy), we did receive a check for these expenses within 3 weeks of submitting the claim. My advice is to save all your travel documentation including boarding passes for all flights. Also, if a flight is cancelled be sure to request documentation from the airline.

Luckily did not have to use it. Also lucky that we were able to add a day of coverage with no hassles or penalties when we had to change our flight date.

We did not have to use the plan but we were relieved to know that it would have covered at least some of our expenses had we needed to delay our return because of Hurricane Dorian.

In the future, you may wish to review your policy prior to purchasing. A summary of coverage information is included in your Nationwide quotes and Confirmations of Coverage.
Fortunately I did not have to make a claim but I felt the policy was reassuring and reasonable in price and would recommend this policy to other travellers. In the past I did have to make a claim and it was handled quickly and professionally Thank you.
