Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
I use Insure my trip for every cruise we schedule. I like the option of being able to compare medical coverages for the amount of coverage, exclusions, pre-existing clause coverage, etc. The remainder of coverages appear to be similar across other insurance policies. . But to be able to compare medicall coverage, emergency evacuation, etc ar of utmost importance in purchasing a travel plan.

I would recommend Insure my trip to anyone. The prices beat those the cruise ships offer by far - and with increased coverage.

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Choice Cruise
In the past, I had always used the same travel insurance to cover our cruises and, fortunately, never had to file a claim. The insurance seemed pretty generic and so I began a search for cruise specific policies. In my research, I came across Nationwide’s Choice Cruise Plan. The Choice Cruise Plan was a little bit more expensive than the policy I had been using, but the coverage was so much better that I thought the added expense was justified. As it turns out, I was right!

My husband and I cruised in December after hurricanes Irma and Maria caused widespread destruction in the Caribbean. One of our original ports of call was St. Maarten, but due to the devastation suffered on the island, Carnival changed our cruise itinerary from St. Maarten to Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic. After review of our policy, I called Nationwide to confirm itinerary change coverage. The claims department confirmed coverage and gave me specific instructions (over the phone and in a follow-up email) on what was needed to file a claim. I filed our claim on December 18, 2017, and had a check in hand on January 2, 2018. Nationwide Choice Cruise Plan will be the only travel insurance I use for future cruises, and it will always be the cruise insurance I recommend to family and friends.

I would highly recommend Nationwide for all of your travel insurance needs! It gave me peace of mind on my vacation knowing that if any problems occurred, my family would be covered. Should you need to file a claim, there is usually only one form to fill out and just a few supporting documents to provide. Customer service is great and claims are expedited within 15 days. Signing up for the plan on Insuremytrip.com was simple and fast, it took only a few minutes to complete the process once I chose a plan.

Luckily we didn't have to use this insurance but it provided the peace of mind we wanted for the trip. Easy to buy and the price seemed reasonable.

I selected Nationwide because of the higher medical coverage than other companies. You need the medical and evacuation coverage in case you need it. Remember that Medicare only covers you in the United States and its territories. Most Medicare supplemental policies offer $50,000 lifetime of foreign travel medical coverage. Also be aware of what you employers health care covers out of the country. Someone was airlifted from our cruise in Labadee. We have personally talked to people who thought they were covered only to end up paying tens of thousands of dollars for health care out of the country.

Cruise coverage had a change of port provision. Due to hurricane activity, the cruise line changed the ports prior to departure. Nationwide processed my claim quickly and paid the claim without a problem. The required paperwork was complete but not burdensome. I would recommend Nationwide cruise coverage based on this experience.

    Thank you very much for your review on pricing. All comprehensive plans including the Nationwide Essential calculate their premiums based on the age of the traveler, trip cost and length of trip. We understand that travel insurance always appears to be a waste of money unless you have a loss when its value becomes apparent. Nevertheless you did select one of our most competitively priced plans when choosing the Nationwide Essential plan.

    Please remember that we always appreciate your comments. If you should need our assistance in the future, you may call Customer Care at (800) 487-4722 Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to midnight ET and weekends 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM.
