AIG Travel Travel Guard Basic
Given the use of digital camera phone and computer by today's traveler, there needs to be better coverage of those items . The coverage by your company and most others is just too low in this day and age.
While I read there is fraud etc I think their needs to be higher levels of coverage less small print and coverage for 2017 not the needs of 10 years ago

I had a claim filed. The claim has now been rejected because delayed luggage by a unionized baggage handler is not covered. This resulted in a missed connection whereby another ticket had to be purchased on a different airline. No reimbursement for the additional ticket.

    Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are sorry to learn of the unfortunate event that occurred during your trip.

    Comprehensive plans are designed to cover as many risks as possible, but is very rare for any insurance plan to cover all possible risks. We strongly recommend customers read the terms and conditions of the policy within the review period to determine if the policy fits your needs. If the policy does not fit your needs, it can be cancelled within the review period for a refund of premium. Please call us at 800-487-4722 if you have any questions or concerns.

Somewhat pricey for the coverage provided, but does add piece of mind when booking 6 months in advance for cruises.

We didn't have a claim so it is really difficult to determine if the plan really had good coverage. The plan seemed to meet our needs.

Not much to say, glad we had it, made us feel safer that we would be covered if a problem came up. None did, but it gave us peace of mind.

I am satisfied, because I didn't have to file a claim. You buy insurance hoping you won't need it, right? I hope I will never need to use it, but that's the only way to know how good it is.
