Travel Insurance Reviews Medical Evacuation Plans

Take Me Home - Single-Trip
Thankfully, we did not need to avail ourselves of this insurance. So no experience in how it all works. But I really was looking for coverage "just in case," remembering an experience with my mother-in-law which required expensive evacuation.

SafeTrip - Single-Trip
It gave me great security to know that I'd be covered in case needed. Another group's excursion bus was rear-ended by an island driver. Glad I would have been covered should it have been me!

On Call International
Single Trip
What I needed was a simple card to state overall coverage AND important telephone numbers. Too many pieces of paper with hard-to-find critical contact info in case services needed.

I liked being able to select the particular coverages important to me rather than a full tray of unneeded coverages.

Fortunately, we didn't need to use it, but it is nice to know that we are covered.

Fortunately, we did not need to use the insurance, but it felt good knowing that we had it, if needed.

One of our travel group became seriously ill and had to use the OnCall services which made us a great believer of travel insurance. We don't leave home without it and hope that we never need it, but it is comforting to know we are covered.

Fortunately, we did not have to use On Call International's coverage, but we did try to contact them while in Ecuador. For some reason, we had trouble calling collect to On Call, but after we brought this to their attention by email, they were more than happy to call us at our hotel telephone. Overall, we were glad for the piece of mind that this policy/membership gave us while we were abroad.

It is easy to purchase an insurance policy, but the true test of an insurance policy is when a claim is submitted and then process. Then again, I was lucky I did not have to submit a claim.

I didn't need to use the On Call International plan so no complaints. It was good to have the security to know it was available.
