Plans are great, especially when you don't have to use them! Provides peace of mind, somewhat.

My friend and I bought this plan instead of a more basic medical-only plan because we wanted protection in case flights were delayed or interrupted, or in case luggage was delayed or lost. From our experience, it was not worth it.

We did indeed have a 24-hour delay due to a missed connection. I thought I would receive the advertised payout, but it was only for expenses incurred during the delay. Since the airline paid for our hotel and gave us meal vouchers, we had zero expenses and thus were not reimbursed anything. I had thought we would receive a straight payout as compensation for the delay, but that was obviously not the case.

My friend also had his luggage lost/delayed for over 24 hours at our destination. Again, there was no direct payout, only reimbursement for things like new clothes or laundry. I had let my friend borrow my spare clothes, so again, there were no expenses to be reimbursed. If we were to do it over again, I would have suggested my friend just go on a shopping spree for free clothing since apparently that was covered.

I imagine the medical coverage was worthwhile, but we didn't need to use it. You can get medical coverage separately at a fraction of the cost of this plan. I really don't think this was worth the cost, and I suggest you read the fine print before buying it over a more basic medical-only plan.

I thought the plan was a bit expensive for a family trip within the US. We bought it because we were unsure if there could be covid issues.

I feel safer knowing I have the extra insurance. I have gotten many plans over the years and have only had to file one claim. I mostly cruise so that is what I insure. It a piece of mind.

Excellent service and promp attention paid to our situation. flight was delayed due to weather, causing luggage to be delayed for a few days. The frustraion was offset by a paid claim for unexpected associated expenses.

Thank you!

I would absolutely tell every person I know to avoid this company. It is a complete and total rip off. Cancel for any reason is complete BS.

I got this coverage since it included cancel for any reason and I was able to get that add-on within the time allowed. I thought it was important due to travelling during COVID and the possibility of new restrictions.

We (fortunately) didn't have a claim - but the plan was reasonably priced and the peace-of-mind, knowing we had insurance, was beneficial. I'd use them again.

The process was simple and easy. It's great you are not stuck with having only one plan presented for your review, you have an opportunity to choose from several plans.
