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.
Let me predicate this review by saying that I did not do my homework as I should have, nor did I study the plan thoroughly during the 10-day review period. I am not faulting this plan, as it is what it is, but I just wanted to let other customers know they need to look at the reimbursement figures carefully. In our case, we had a super-close airline connection between our destination city of Nagoya, Japan and Tokyo, where we needed to connect for our flight back to San Diego. There is only one flight available per day. As fate had it, an unexpected delay of our flight out of Nagoya almost made us miss the connecting flight in Tokyo, except for the fact that thankfully our Tokyo flight connection was also delayed. We saw in our policy that we were covered for a mere $150 had we missed our connecting flight. Obviously, we would have had to spend three times as much for an airport hotel and food for an overnight and wait until the next evening. It is questionable whether the airlines would have compensated us in part. Anyway, just a caveat: recreate every scenario and read your policy thoroughly.

Thank you for your feedback on the policy. This review offers many friendly hints and reminders to our customers:
1) Please call us prior to purchasing a policy to ask questions about benefit limits and covered events. We are available 7 days a week by calling 800-487-4722.
2) Most comprehensive policies have 10-15 day review period. The review period allows customers to read and understand what the policy covers, or cancel the policy and receive a refund of premium. Service fees ranging between $5-$8 may apply.
3) Typically, travel delay benefits have a per day limit between $100-$300. However, we do offer plans that provide coverage up to the maximum limit listed under travel delay.
4) We offer several comprehensive plans that can cover missed connections for a flight to flight connection. Missed connection requires at least a 3 consecutive hour delay or cancellation due to a defined hazard, and can cover additional transportation expenses, reasonable accommodation and meal expenses, and reimburse the pre-paid and non-refundable unused portion of the trip. The benefit limit for missed connection varies from plan to plan, but some plans provide coverage up to $1,000 or more.
We purchased an insurance from InsureMyTrip since we travel in winter, and worry about flight cancellation or trip delay. Weather did not bother our trip, and we are well prepared.

Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are pleased to learn that your claim was paid. In the future, please contact InsureMyTrip and request a customer advocate. Our customer advocates can contact the insurance company on your behalf, and request the claim process be expedited.
When we took a trip to Japan 4, or 5 years ago, we purchased the same plan. Cost went up but it is natural. Thing is your insurance gave us peace of mind. We are going to buy your insurance when we plan next trip.
