Wow, an honest insurance company - don't hear about that too often. I called to ask what would happen if our cruise ended up being a "cruise to nowhere" after the 2017 hurricanes. It was then that I learned our policy had an itinerary change benefit. I was advised to file the claim upon returning as they needed proof that we actually took the cruise.
In the middle of filling out the paperwork, I called Nationwide with a question and learned that my benefit was actually double what I thought! Wow. Claim documentation requirements were straightforward, no "gotchas". Claim paid in about 2 weeks. Would absolutely recommend this company again.

BUYER BEWARE!!
We have been purchasing trip insurance through InsureMyTrip and Nationwide for years. On Dec. 16, our flight was canceled meaning we could not reach our cruise destination of San Juan and had to meet the cruise a day later in St. Kitts. I felt sure our trip interruption portion of our policy would cover the cost of missing one day of a very expensive holiday cruise. Wow, was I wrong. When I called Nationwide, I was told unless the airport is completely shut down, the cancellation of a flight is not covered. I was told there was no need to file a claim as no payment would be made. I called InsureMyTrip to speak with someone about this. I was told, "Sorry you're not happy. Have a great day."
Never Ever Again!!!
Read every word of the fine print.

Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are sorry to hear that your flight was cancelled and that your vacation was negatively impacted.
The Nationwide Essential plan is a "named peril" policy which means that the peril (covered reason) must be specifically listed in the plan or there is no coverage. This particular plan includes the following coverage for Trip Interruption:
"Weather that causes complete cessation of services of the Common Carrier for at least twenty-four (24) consecutive hours and prevents You from reaching Your destination."
We do have other policies available on our site that have specific cruise benefits, such as Missed Connection. In the future, if you are looking for guidance in selecting a travel insurance plan, please consider contacting our office at 800-487-4722 where a licensed representative would be happy to assist you.
I filed a small medical claim and it was processed and paid promptly, A great benefit of this plan is that it does not have to be purchased until final payment to cover pre-existing conditions.

Price was better than what was offered through travel agency but somehow I was always nervous that if I had a claim, it would have been more difficult to fulfill on my own. Not sure why I felt that way, but fortunately it was not an issue anyway.

Some of the other travel plans I researched had bells and whistle coverages I did not need and increased the price substantially. This was a good product with the exact coverage I required.

I didn't have to use the plan, thank goodness, but it was good to know I was covered in the event I needed it...such a small price to pay for peace of mind.

Plentiful choices, easy to compare policies. The customer service representative I spoke with was incredibly helpful, providing a creative option that saved me significant money.
I will purchase my future policies from InsureMyTrip.
