We didn't have to file a claim so it's hard to give a review. But it was easy to apply for this insurance and reasonable in price, but we just hoped that if there was a problem we would be covered.

Fortunately we did not have to submit any claims during this trip, but having the insurance gave us piece of mind when finalizing our plans. We did some research and found the price of this plan very competitive, and cheaper than the cruise line offered.

Giving a review without having filed a claim is somewhat pointless. The purpose (for me at least) of getting insurance is to be compensated when I file a claim. After a claim is filed, that's when you find out the " True Colors" of the insurance company you chose.

I read that this plan didn't cover missing a cruise if the flight had mechanical difficulties. That's insufficient coverage for me, but otherwise I had good coverage which we didn't use.

Thank you for your comments. You are correct that Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption under this policy would not have reimbursed you for your prepaid non-refundable travel expense if your trip had been canceled or interrupted due to the mechanical breakdown of a travel provider under the Choice Cruise plan. However, you did have the option to add on Cancel for Any Reason:
"TRIP CANCELLATION FOR ANY REASON - OPTIONAL UPGRADE
If You cancel Your Trip for any reason not otherwise covered by this Certificate, the Company will reimburse You for the percentage of the prepaid, forfeited, non-refundable Payments or Deposits You paid for Your Trip shown on the Confirmation of Coverage provided:
a) Your premium payment is received prior to or on the date Your final deposit/payment for Your Trip is received; and
b) You insure all prepaid Trip costs that are subject to cancellation penalties or restrictions and also insure prior to or on the date Your final payment for those arrangements the cost of any subsequent arrangements (or any other arrangements not made through Your travel agent) added to Your Trip; and
c) You cancel Your Trip two (2) days or more before Your Scheduled Departure Date."
Please also note that you did have some coverage under Trip Delay up to 150 USD daily, 750 USD maximum (secondary coverage).
"TRIP DELAY
The Company will reimburse You for Covered Expenses on a one-time basis, up to the Maximum Benefit shown on the Confirmation of Coverage, if You are delayed, while coverage is in effect, en route to or from the Trip for six (6) or more
hours due to a defined Hazard.
Covered Expenses:
(a) Any Additional Expenses incurred;
(b) A one-way Economy Fare to return You to Your originally scheduled return destination...
Hazard means:
a) Any delay of a Common Carrier (including Inclement Weather).
b) Any delay by a traffic accident en route to a departure, in which You or a Traveling Companion is not directly involved.
c) Any delay due to lost or stolen passports, travel documents or money, Quarantine, hijacking, unannounced Strike, natural disaster, civil commotion or riot.
d) A closed roadway causing cessation of travel to the destination of the Trip (substantiated by the department of transportation, state police, etc.)"
Please feel free to call us at (800) 487-4722 if you have any questions.
Didn't need the insurance this time but used it last year. My mom was delusional due to seasick patch. Cost her $860 to get checked out by ship's doctor. Nationwide Mutual reimbursed her all $860.
