We had to cancel our trip because one of our travelers became pregnant, and albeit that was a non cancel-able reason per the contract, our trip location is one of the highest Zika virus potentials in the world and per her doctors orders not to chance the trip.
The coverage was denied.
We canceled our trip because of the Zika virus not because she was pregnant.
I think this is wrong!

I am thankful that I did not have to file a claim. I chose nationwide because of the amount of coverage and the price. I would use InsureMyTrip for every time I go on vacation .

Bought the plan to cover a cruise. We never used the plan so I cannot comment on how responsive the company would be if a claim was filed!

Easy to sign up, and affordable. This insurance gave us the peace of mind we wanted prior to, and during our first cruise. We didn't need it in the end, but we had no worries, and we didn't worry as we played the "what if" game.

A bit too expensive for what it was, but it did cover more than other similarly priced plans.

I used Nationwide twice now for cruise trip insurance. I have not had to use it, but I am totally satisfied with the coverage they provide for the price.

Fortunately I did not have to submit a claim, and hopefully, had I had to I feel confident that the claim would have been handled appropriately.
I must say that I did feel comfortable while on my trip, knowing that I was covered for a medical emergency while away from home.

I was happy with the insurance plan and I told 5 people about it on vacation and they said they were going to use it on their next trip.

Was a great feeling to know I was protected both before and during our cruise. Have purchased another plan for an upcoming cruise.

Cancel for Any Reason coverage typically requires the following requirements (varies by plan):
1) Purchase within 10-30 days of your initial trip deposit
2) Insure 100% of your pre-paid, non-refundable trip cost
3) Cancel the trip 2 or more days prior to departure
While Cancel for Any Reason does give you the flexibility to cancel your trip due to an increased fear of Zika, it does not protect 100% of your trip cost. Depending upon the plan, Cancel for Any Reason benefit will reimburse 50%, 70%, or 75% of your insured trip cost.
Please call us at 800-487-4772 if you have any questions about insuring against Zika related events, or the Cancel For Any Reason benefit.
