While we ended up not needing to file any claims we enjoyed the peace of mind having a policy gave us.

Never had to use insurance so true value is unknown. Based off coverage seems to be better option to coverage offered by cruise line. But one negative is no mobile app for use in emergency. All we had was hard copy print out.

Our flight was cancelled for mechanical issues but the policy only covers 24 hour weather delay and strikes. Typical ridiculous fine print. I buy insurance to cover things beyond my control. Mechanical issues are a common reason for flight delay/cancelation that are beyond my control. To sell a policy that does not cover mechanical issues is simply a scam. I want my money back you con artists!

We bought the plan “just in case” and it certainly gave us the peace of mind we hoped for. Luckily for us, the “just in case” did not happen! BUT we were ready…
