It turns out you really need 250k to cover emergency evacuations. I am lucky I didn’t need to use that feature.

    Thank you for your reply. Your AIG Travel Guard Basic plan provided 100,000 USD in Emergency Medical Evacuation which provides transportation when:
    "(a) the Insured's medical condition warrants immediate transportation from the place where the Insured is injured or sick to the nearest Hospital where appropriate medical treatment can be obtained;
    (b) after being treated at a local Hospital, the Insured's medical
    condition warrants transportation to where the Insured resides, to obtain further medical treatment or to recover; or
    (c) both (a) and (b) above."

    Of course, AIG Travel Guard does offer higher limits with the Silver plan 150,000 USD, Gold plan 500,000 USD or Platinum plan 1,000,000 USD.

Coverage was good. So sorry we had to cancel because of a medical emergency. Claim filing process with Christopher was excellent... he made a difficult situation much less stressful
Thank YOU

The tags were a nice touch. I felt more secure with them on my suitcases. I did not have any problems, so I did not have any claims. I will use this company again for my next trip.

There is a certain piece of mind when I have trip insurance. I've only purchased this type of insurance in the past few years (as I have gotten older). I've never filed a claim, but my wife has and AIG TG gave us no problems.

since we didn't even get to go on our cruise, I can't even comment except that to get the insurance the website was very easy to use. I will be using it again in the future

Bought the plan before our trip to the Bahamas. Had no clue there was a storm about to turn into a hurricane when I purchased it. Read the fine print and it says you have to purchase the plan before the hurricane is named and I guess that had happened the week before. Lost two days of vacation and this plan did not cover it.

    Thank you for providing feedback on this plan.

    We are sorry to learn that you had lost 2 days of your trip. For most policies, coverage would only apply if the reason you file a claim is considered unforeseen at the time of purchase. Once a storm or hurricane is known, coverage on a new policy would be reduced or no longer apply for a claim related.

    We always recommend that you contact us directly at 1-800-487-4722 if you have any main concerns when insuring your trip. Our licensed representatives are available 7 days a week and can assist in finding you an appropriate policy for your travel needs.

We have insured our trip with you before and luckily for us we have not had to file a claim either time. We take the insurance because my husband's mother is 93 years old and I have a nephew who is battling a non-curable rapid growing cancer. I know these are not anything that one can predict but we just feel safer knowing that we would be covered should an unforseen problem arise. Thank You for providing this reasonable insurance.
