November 8, 2024Marcia from KS Verified Squaremouth CustomerWas this review helpful to you?I had never purchased this travel insurance before, but was very pleased with both the price and the fact that you purchased the insurance with a total price amount in mind. I never like having to call to update my travel insurance based on my additional travel plans.
Upon arriving in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, I became sick with Covid. It was very expensive to get new flights to return home, and our trip was delayed in Romania due to having to isolate for days. I was very concerned about the additional expenses, but thankfully, we had excellent travel insurance. We had purchased Detour@the edge. The customer service representatives were very kind and understanding. They helped me navigagate the claim process for trip interruption and trip delay with confidence and ease. I received the first payment in a timely matter, and then upon discussing other expenses I had incurred, I filed a second part to the claim. received the final checks for my husband and myself today. I am so happy that we have purchased the same coverage with the same company for our next big international trip. I give this company 20 stars.
