We had to cancel our trip and was told the premium wasn't refundable.
Very helpful and valuable insurance.
So far, the process has been very easy.
When our return flight was cancelled and rescheduled, we had to make additional hotel plans. I did reach out to IMG to see if we needed to clear anything through you, but were told we should just make our own reservations and then submit. The agent did offer to make suggestions, but we did not need that, as we'd already found a place to stay.
All is well so far...just need to submit our claim for the delayed flight.
Thank you!
-Rebecca and Stephen
