Great coverage. I had total confidence, even though I did not have to use the insurance in the end.
Customer service rep was most helpful with options that I may have to consider in cancelling the trip or proceeding with trip and seek a pro-rata refund, due to father-in-law being placed in hospice care. CSR was most understanding and empathetic and was appreciated. Fortunately we were able to complete our trip.
Purchase experience was smooth and agent was very helpful.
