Difficult to provide good analysis of the plan unless there was a claim and we had no issues during our trip so no claim requested. Did seem a bit costly yet it was recommended by a friend from a previous trip they had (which they also had no claim).

I called the company with a concern about a possible travel issue. Fortunately, I didn't need to file a claim, but I was impressed with the representative. He clearly explained the benefit available.

I appreciated the peace of mind I had while traveling. I knew if for some reason I became ill, or had any normal trip interruption my hard earned money will not have been wasted. It was a small amount to pay to protect myslef.

Luckily didn’t need to use this, however there was a point in the trip where we had a situation that could have potentially caused cancellations. I was glad to have this in my “back pocket “. Will use again in future.
