I purchased this policy for my husband and myself on a recent cruise. We didn't need to file a claim. As such, all I can truly say is that I'm satisfied with the price I paid for the coverage options I selected. However, I feel that asking me to rate a plan I actually didn't use is somewhat misleading to future clients.

It is great to have insurance, even if you never use it. Whilst on this trip, I saw emergency services for people who had to go to the local hospital in Mexico. I could not imagine having to pay for services out of pocket like that. So, I can say, this was the best money I spent on the entire trip!
