Global Alert! Preferred
We had lost bags. Global Alert worked diligently to locate our bags and help get them released. We had been trying to no avail to locate the bags. We'd been getting the run-around from the airlines and airport. We believe that the reason we got the bags back was because of the work Global Alert did for us!

The plan gave me peace of mind if a medical emergency happened to a loved one and I could not go on the trip.

I would have preferred to be able to insure only a portion of the trip. I would have also preferred to have a larger coverage amount on a single item in my luggage.

    Thank you for your feedback on the policy. In the future, please call our customer service at 800-487-4722 and a representative can help to find policies that do not require you to insure 100% and have higher per article limits for baggage.

Good option for comprehensive coverage for a week in London. Happily we had no need to file a claim but the plan provided a sense of security that was well worth the price.

The good news is that Global Alert paid the trip cancellation benefit, as they were supposed to do. The bad news was that it took 77 days from the day they received my claim to the day I received the check. I had to call them 7 times to try to keep moving things along. Each time they would promise to do something by a certain date, and then would fail to do it. I finally called InsureMyTrip and got a Claims Advocate to intervene. The Claims Advocate was so helpful and so responsive. With his help, things finally got done.

We did not need to file a claim, but it gave us peace of mind knowing that we did have coverage if needed. The representative that we talked with before going was very friendly and helpful to us. My son-in-law who purchased from another insurance company said he wished he had known about Global Alert before buying his policy. He paid more and not as good of coverage.
