Thankfully, I did not have any issues and did not need to use the insurance. It was nice knowing I had coverage if I needed it, especially so far from home.

The plan cost seemed rather high for the outside chance that we would need to use it to file a claim. I would have been wholly satisfied if the cost of the plan had been about 30% less.

I traveled to India for a month confident that should the unexpected happen at home or on the trip I would be compensated and helped to deal with any emergency that might arise. The peace of mind was priceless.

I didn't need to use the Insurance, but felt comfortable knowing I had it if the need arose.

We had to extend our return trip for several days. I was surprised that there was no way to extend our travel insurance. That would be a good feature to add.

I was going to Africa on a Safari and felt that Insurance coverage was a must. This made me feel confident that if something happened (auto accident, plane wreck, animal that decides to do me in!!) I was covered.

As with most reviewers, I did not need to file a claim, so I don't know how much hassle it would have been in practice or if I would have recovered as much as I thought I would. However, given the abysmal state of medical care in Laos, where I was traveling, I wanted to make sure I could be evacuated to Thailand for care, if I needed it. I also had a very elderly relative whose health could easily have caused me to have to cancel or abridge my very costly trip. I feel as if I did the best I could to insure against those possibilities, and I found InsureMyTrip.com to be very easy to deal with on the phone. I had to increase the amount of my coverage as I finished travel purchases, and agents on the phone were helpful in making sure I did not buy more coverage than I needed. I will likely use this service again if I travel under similar circumstances.

Thank goodness we didn't need to use any aspects of this plan. I can't really evaluate the plan since we didn't have to make a claim. Seemed like a reasonable price for the coverage.

This was a short trip during the winter holiday season. Even a one day weather delay would have cost multiples of the purchase price for the insurance, so this gave me all the peace of mind I could ask for. An agent was very helpful in getting me the exact coverages I wanted; I really liked the personal service.
