It was unclear as to if the Insurance plan would cover a cancellation say up to 72 hours prior to departure with a full refund due back. Thank you, Jim Kraynik

    Thank you for your feedback. According to the certificate, it shows that your Travelex Travel Basic plan would provide Trip Cancellation coverage due to a covered peril and that the insurance provider would need to be notified within 72 hours of a covered loss in order to file a claim.

    Please contact 800-487-4722 where a licensed representative would be happy to assist you if you have additional questions.

Didn't need the plan on our travels so don't know how well it would have worked. Price seemed reasonable for coverage promised. Would use again.

My husband and I have been traveling since 2004 and wouldn't leave on a cruise without cruise insurance. I have used insure my trip for many years and feel it has many plans to choose from and all reasonable.

We need a cost effective plan that would help out with major expenses, i.e., transportation back to the states. This plan has worked well for us. Provides a feeling of confidence at significantly lower cost than plans provided by the Cruise company or travel agent. Though we have had no claims so cannot provide a review on payments.

I bought this plan because it was one of the few Primary payer plans. I didn't have to use the plan. None of them are what I call reasonably priced but they're all pretty pricey these days.

We had a wonderful Caribbean vacation on the Jazz Cruise. It was only marred by the theft of my purse when I had left it unattended for a short time. My camera and several other personal items were stolen--thank goodness I left my cash and credit cards in the room safe! A Travelex representative gave me instructions on how to report the loss, and the value of everything (except prescription sunglasses) was promptly processed and refunded to me. Thank you Travelex!

Thankfully, I did not have to use the plan, but it was nice to know it was available. It would be nice if I could get a rebate to use on my next trip.
