The Global Alert Preferred plan offers comprehensive Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption coverage if you have to cancel or interrupt your trip due an unforeseen covered event.
Although I did not file any claims, it was easy to purchase this insurance and customer service was excellent. I would definitely call them in the future and hopefully, if I did have to file a claim, would not have any problems.

Excellent plan that provided all I wanted in Travel coverage. Lost luggage, last flights, medical and if needed, evacuation coverage. Happily, I did not need any of the services offered. The peace of mind for knowing I had coverage if needed was the greatest benefit.
As for Insure My Trip. The best. One place to review all plans from different companies. This was my second purchase through InsureMyTrip.com and I am very satisfied with them.
Highly recommend both Global Alert and InsureMyTrip. com.

When booking a non-refundable 20-day trip to China through Sinorama Holidays (which included airfare, hotels, meals, tours and in-country transportation), we were urged to purchase our own travel insurance. We are in our seventies, and have traveled to places like India and Russia, but never purchased travel insurance before. We are SO GLAD we did. We purchased an all-inclusive Global Alert policy online through InsureMyTrip / TripMate. It covered us from the day we booked (in October) through the dates of the trip (late March into April). We paid only $180 each to cover the trip cost of $2499 each. The peace of mind was great in itself. But when, two days before departure, my husband developed stomach cramps and a high fever and was told to go to the emergency room, we were SO GLAD we had that insurance. Long story short, my husband was admitted, put on IV antibiotics (he had diverticulitis, something he'd never had before, with a large abscess, which if it had burst while traveling could have proved fatal). Since then he has had 18 inches of his lower intestine surgically removed. (We never saw this coming--we are physically active and walk a mile or two each day.) We were sorry to miss our China trip. Our bags were packed and were so excited to be going. But how much worse it would have been if we had lost our $5000 too! Global Alert refunded us within a month (only recommendation: better communication during claim period.) Now we have the funds to book another trip to China if and when my husband is able to travel there. THANK YOU!!

Fortunately, we didn't have to use the plan, but we had great piece of mind that we could be evacuated in a medical emergency from China. Secondary was the safety of our monetary investment in our trip. The cost was half the price quoted by our tour operator.

After the initial purchase, I had to make changes as our plans changed. The representatives were very accommodating changing our coverage. Fortunately, we do not need to file a claim.
