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.
We had to cancel a 15-day Princess Cruises trip to Hawaii in October, 2016, just two days before sailing, because of a medical issue. The April Travel policy we had purchased reimbursed us for the out-of-pocket cruise fares very promptly (within a couple of weeks) and without any hassle. Fortunately, we had no other non-refundable costs. I will definitely use the April Travel Choice plan again if it is available the next time we plan a trip. One useful fact I learned from this experience was that the government taxes and port charges portion of a cruise fare ARE refundable when you cancel a cruise, so you may not need to insure these amounts.

This was purchased for a cruise and for piece of mind for a minimal price and lots of coverage options, this is the only way to go. I have purchased insurance twice (never had to use it, thankfully). Each time I had a knowledgeable agent to help me narrow my choices down, besides doing my own research via website. Highly recommend!!

My wife and I have traveled with another couple for the last 15 -20 years. We get along great and in my wife's case know each other since childhood. Anyway, not to prolong the story, we had planned our vacation this year for Hawaii - several days on Honolulu and then a cruise around the other islands. A week or so before the trip the spouse of our travel companions had some bad results to medical tests she took and as it turns out needed open heart surgery. As a result of this we certainly did not want to travel while she was undergoing this procedure. After submitting all of our documentation to Nationwide, within less then two weeks and without any questions beyond the documentation we submitted, we received a check in full for our entire trip. That is service personified.
PS: Most important, our friend's wife had the surgery yesterday and is doing well. That is the best news!

My wife had an emergency medical condition requiring surgery arise just before we were going to take our trip. I filed the claim with CSA and everything was processed quickly and without issue.
