I have purchased this plan for about 6 different trips. I filed claims the first two times for two different reasons. The claim process was easy, and the payment came quickly. This plan is a primary insurance--which is much better than a secondary plan where you have to go through your own insurance first. I plan to purchase this plan every time I travel out of the country. Highly recommended.

Fortunately we did not have to utilize the policy. We did have the comfort of knowing that we had coverage for our trip.

It gave me the security when traveling that if I needed it, I had it. Thankfully, I didn't need it.

We particularly wanted coverage for interruption of our trip due to the illness of a family member, since one of us has an elderly, frail mother. The coverage eased our minds.

Unfortunately, for the first time in 30 years I had to file a claim when I fell and was unable to leave on my trip. Claim application was sent immediately with clear directions for filing, and the refund was issued promptly with no hassle. Will use them again and recommend highly. Thank you Travelex!

It was great to know I was protected from some unforeseen circumstance. This policy was less expensive than that provided by my travel company with just as much coverage.

If you have coverage for part of your trip through your credit card then you should only take coverage for things that aren't covered. In our case trip interruption or cancellation, and baggage loss or delay were covered so we needed only medical coverage.
