Thank goodness we had a great time and did not have to make a claim on our insurance. I did feel secure, however, knowing that I had the plan. It was comprehensive and value priced.

We did not have to file any claims. I chose this plan as it provided the coverage for a great price! Much cheaper than what the cruiseline offered and had all the coverage I needed.

The plan seems good. I didn't need to file a claim so.i'm not really sure about the fine print. But it gave me peace of mind and the price was very reasonable.

This plan was referred to me by a veteran Cruise maniac. The price is very reasonable and covers the basics for my cruise. One MUST have cruise insurance before leaving the states.

Had to cancel cruise because of a back injury. Called and they emailed the forms and instructions. Emailed the completed forms and supporting documents back and received payment within 10 days. Very good service.

Fortunately, We did not need to use our coverage, however there were others on the trip ( or not on the trip) that lost a lot of money because life happened and they ( some or all) couldn't go.
