Years ago when we traveled, we never purchased trip insurance, and we never regretted not doing so. However, as our parents have gotten older, we have purchased trip insurance for the last several trips with them, and by ourselves, just in case something happened and we were not able to go on the trip or needed to come home earlier than planned. Once again, we were happy to not need the insurance! If we had needed it, though, it would have helped limit the financial loss caused by a late trip cancellation or flight changes.

C&F was a very easy online process! I would highly recommend this to my friends and family. Will look to C&F for my next trip!

We have used Generali (under both the CSA; Generali names) policies for years without ever filing a claim and were satisfied. Now that we have gone through the difficult claims process, which took hours and involved some contradictory information from their online help, we'll switch to a company with a clearer description of the coverage offered. Other providers state very clearly what the medical and dental coverage includes, and we will choose between one of them for our upcoming trip. Since our credit card covers all the trip delay, lost and delayed luggage, etc, medical coverage is the important part of a trip that needs coverage from a travel insurance policy.

My father was placed on hospice 1 month prior to trip departure. I cancelled at that time and within 2 weeks received my refund difference. My father passed away during the trip dates, so not having to worry about the hassle of getting my money back was a great relief.

The woman I spoke with on the phone when I signed up for my plan was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I did not need to use the plan therefore I cannot speak to how easy or difficult it was to file a claim.

Having had the good fortune of not filing a claim for my trip, this is a review of the contract document, not its implementation. One reason I chose this plan was because I felt the contract document was well written, well organized, and easier to understand than those of other trip insurance companies.

Fortunately, I didn't encounter any obstacles before or during my trip and did not have to file a claim. Therefore,I can't really comment on the plan's responsiveness to problems, but I'm very happy that I didn't need to find out!

We did contact Generali to explain the confusion in your policy wording.
Here is their response:
