Given that I purchased the policy months in advance I especially appreciated the email right before my trip so I didn't need to go looking through old emails to find the information.

The documents required to provide proof of payment trail was overboard. Coverage for Covid related expenses was greatly insufficient. However, review and response was faster than I was initially informed.

Thankfully, I did not have to file a claim. The coverage was reasonably priced and underwritten by a reputable well rated company.

Once purchased, travel insurance is something I tend to forget about until needed. So far, another trip without cause to use insurance. I'm okay with that. Good travels everyone!

Difficult to rate the insurance since I didn't have to make a claim (thank goodness). All trip insurance is expensive until there is a need to use it and then it is a godsend (especially evacuation!)

I would not have traveled to Europe without insurance. It was a fair price for the coverage and thankfully we did not need to use it.

It was comforting to know we had coverage if an unfortunate event occurred. Happy I did not need it, but great to have the insurance.

Didn't have to use it so I can't really say for sure if it is a good product or not. I did have the peace of mind that I had insurance, so that is a good thing. I picked Nationwide because I already am a customer and I am familiar with some of your products.

Thanks!
