"Peace of Mind" has No Price, and this is what your insurance provides, beside the product (coverage in case you need it),
therefore, your company makes Vacations More Enjoyable. Thank-you AIG!!!!

Happily, we didn't need the coverage this time, but the peace of mind was worth it.

Since I did not use the plan it is difficult to judge the quality of the coverage and speed of recovery. I had a great trip, but I thought the plan was expensive.

Highly recommend purchasing this plan to protect your trip investment against loss due to unexpected events. For me my deposit was not refundable and since my spouse and other family members have some heath issues I had piece of mind knowing I would not lose my large deposit.

What was considered a legitimate claim for inability to make the trip was denied.

I took a 10-day walking trek in Iceland. While I normally don't insure myself--I've walked mountains for 20+ years, our vendor recommended it so I did. No injuries for the 30 of us. Peace of mind, however, in case something did.

Claim was very slow, seen by 3 reviewers. Poor communication with me. I never received an adequate explanation. I sent documents and they always wanted more. I will never use AIG Travel Guard again. I urge you not to offer their services.
