We had a 4 day trip delay in St. Marten due to a huge snow storm that cancelled our return flight, and Nationwide was excellent in reimbursing me the maximum amount allowed under the policy for that delay. They were easy to get a hold of and courteous. I will definitely buy my trip insurance through them again!!!

My dad was in the process of dying and I didn't know if I would be able to go or not. I called four days before I was to leave with questions about coverage. I was happy to be told I would be covered up until the day of travel (I knew that from the policy but was happy to HEAR it). They gave me a number to call and a claim number if I needed it. Very kind. Don't know when my future travel plans will materialize but Nationwide will be my choice for insurance.
And, I have referred Nationwide for future travel to friends.

Like any insurance you never know if it was enough or to much. I am still not sure if what I bought was the correct policy with the correct coverage. Having said this I believe in travel insurance, what we did purchase was the best bang for the buck. Next time how can I consult with an agent to make sure I'm buying the right policy?

cruise

Our 4-night cruise to Bahamas was plagued by bad weather and rough seas. We were not able to stop at the island nor able to get off the ship during the entire cruise due to torrential rains and winds. Trip interruption / itinerary-change coverage did not cover this because we never left the ship. In order for this coverage to apply, we would have had to leave the ship and not get to have the ship services (ie meals, rooms). Otherwise, it was a comfort to think that we would be protected from major problems, but the details of coverage should be checked out for these types of exceptions/qualifications. For example, if the ship was disabled out at sea for days, no reimbursement would be given.

    Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are sorry to learn that you experienced bad weather during your cruise. Below is an expert from the Nationwide Mutual Insurance Prime plan explaining the Itinerary Change benefit:

    "In the event a cruise/Travel Supplier makes a change in Your Covered Trip itinerary that prevents You from participating in an event/activity pre-paid prior to departure and scheduled on the Your Covered Trip itinerary, nonrefundable pre-paid event/activity expenses will be payable up to the Maximum Benefit Amount shown in the Confirmation of Coverage.

    Benefits will not be paid if the event/activity is rescheduled during the course of the Covered Trip.

    Verification by the Cruise/Travel Supplier of the change in the scheduled Trip Itinerary will be necessary for claim
    payment."

    If you have any questions or concerns please call us at 800-487-4772. Our representatives are available 7 days a week and would be happy to assist you.

My wife and I never ever buy trip insurance and vacation at least three times per year. Our dilemma with this trip is that we had to change plans three times to get to our final destination each way and the one airline had a poor track record with delays and lost luggage. Thank goodness everything worked out and we didn't need to use it.

We had to cancel due to a family emergency 3 weeks before our trip. We could not have been more satisfied with the help and response we received from Nationwide. Our claim was processed quickly and easily. I would recommend them and in fact, will use them again in the future for our travel plans.
