This plan is an excellent value. It covered everything I felt I needed and at a reasonable cost. It gave me peace of mind during my two-week trip overseas.

I use Insure My Trip and Travel Guard whenever I take a trip where I feel insurance is necessary. My wife and I are in our 80's, so we are very concerned about making sure we qualify for the existing condition waiver, because if we get sick, it will probably be from a pre-existing condition. However, when I subsequently purchased the air fare for this trip, I forgot to immediately add the cost to the policy, and missed the 15 day purchase requirement. I still added it some 10 days later at a cost of over $400. However, it is my understanding that, because I missed the 15 day purchase requirement, I apparently voided a substantial part of my coverage, particularly the pre-existing condition waiver. And this is after I paid over $3,300 for the trip insurance coverage. This does not seem fair at all to me. I do my best to follow the rules, but void my coverage for a 10 day mistake. I believe that this is an overly restrictive provision. I have just purchased another travel insurance policy for a trip in 2019, but feel that these types of requirements are put in place as a means of denying coverage, which I do not think is fair.

Thankfully, I have never had to file a claim. Obtaining these policies is required for student travel at our college and satisfies the requirement regarding deductible and coverage at a reasonable price.

Did not cover delay due to travel accident in which you were not involved. Also due to weather my son lost his school vacation days. I would have cancelled because I did not want him to miss a week of school but that was not covered either. I guess cancel for any reason would have been better for this situation but not for the travel accident delay. That coverage I believe ends 48 hours before trip.

    Thank you for providing feedback on this policy.

    It is true that both these situations would not be covered under a standard trip cancellation policy. Specifically for school-related cancellations, you would need a policy that included Cancel For Any Reason.

    There are typically 3 conditions that must be met to purchase a Cancel For Any Reason Rider: Purchase the policy within 10 - 21 days of First Trip Payment; Insure ALL prepaid and non-refundable travel expenses prior to departure; Trip arrangements must be canceled more than 48 -72 hours prior to the departure date. If you meet all 3 of these conditions, this benefit will typically reimburse you 75% of your trip cost, unless otherwise noted.

    Please feel free to contact us in the future, when planning your next trip. Our representatives are available 7 days a week and can be reached at 1-800-487-4722.

I am very pleased with AIG I had a family member in intensive care and had to come back from my vacation. I lost 11 days of my vacation and filed a claim. Scott assisted me and I was thrilled with his professional manner. He was sincere and helpful and I appreciated that. My family new I came back early and felt bad I had lost so many days of my vacation. Family always comes first and I reassured them I had bought insurance and would try to file a claim. AIG reimbursed me for the 11 days lost and since I told my family a check was sent to me they realize in the future they will purchase insurance on their trips in the future. Some thought the insurance would be a scam, they now see it is definitely worth the extra money. Thank You
