AIG Travel Travel Guard MedEvac Plan
We always buy trip insurance when we travel to skiing. Prior to this year, only once in 10 years have we had to make use of the secondary medical coverage benefit in these trip insurance policies, and in that prior experience the coverage, service, and support were exceptional. This year we had a party-member injured on the trip and we were shocked and disappointed to learn the coverage did NOT include continuing medical care required after our return from the trip. In the previous experience, the secondary medical benefit provided a full year of follow-up care for the injury incurred during the trip (after our primary coverage benefit). In the policy we bought this year, not a single cost incurred for treatment once we returned from the trip is included for coverage. This difference in (absence of) secondary medical coverage benefit needs to be made very clear in the highlights presented when a person is shopping in your on-line market. Sure - buyer beware. I get that. So, you got me once, but I will bring my shopping business somewhere else every other time going forward. We are very unhappy. We feel very cheated. We are telling everyone we know to be beware of your service.

    Thank you for your review. Travel insurance is meant to cover you while traveling. Most plans will have coverage end once you return home, as your home health insurance is meant to kick in. In the future, please call us at 800-487-4722 and we can assist you with finding plans that cover your concerns.

      As you clearly acknowledge, some plans end coverage (perhaps most, as you say) upon return home, but that then means some do not end this coverage. That is the distinction my comment suggest be made clear in your online sales platform. We have always intended to purchase the coverage which continues a true 'secondary' health benefit. Because you platform did not make clear which plans did and did not provide this, we were left disappointed. As I said before - buyer beware. You will not get me again.

My husband had a freak accident that required him to be hospitalized overnight. We thought he was fine, and would be able to complete our tour, but a day later, (and in a different city), he had to be readmitted, and stayed for three nights.
The medical team at AIG was very supportive and kind. They reminded me to save ALL receipts (including taxi receipts for when I visited my husband in the hospital) and emailed me the needed forms. They suggested I take a photo of the medical charges and email the photo to them so they could get the claim started.
In the end, I was reimbursed for 100% of the cost of the trip, which covered all of our out of pocket expenses and reimbursed us for the days we lost.
It took about 5 weeks for the claim to be processed, and the web site was not very helpful. It showed that I had outstanding items to submit, even after the claim was paid. But the people on the phones were very helpful and courteous.
Overall, I was very pleased with the service and the coverage.

We did file a claim and it was handled fairly . The response time was longer than usual due the claim backlog caused by a hurricane. We did however receive several emails apologizing for the delay.

Trip delay insurance add a small limit. I had cost over $3500, but the coverage was only $1,000.

    Thank you for your review.

    AIG Travel Guard based your 2,000 USD reimbursement for two travelers on the following per person limits:

    Travel Delay 12+ hours
    100 USD/day; 500 USD max. (secondary)

    All Comprehensive plans listed on our website have daily and maximum limitations for Travel Delay. However, you may wish to consider the AIG Travel Guard Gold or Platinum plans, which offer higher Travel Delay limits, for your next trip.

Favorable outcome 3 weeks after filing claim. Using the web form was a complete waste of time. Form claimed multiple file types accepted but only pdf uploaded. Also the file size was inadequate to document the claim. Suggest ignoring the web based form as it is a misdirection. Instead, call an agent like it is the year 1995 and you can the file via email using files of acceptable size.

Once I did this, AIG reimbursed all I requested

AIG Travel Insurance it's the worst company ever! my sister cancel her wedding in the Dominican Republican because of all the deaths that was going on out there. They don't want to pay me my money back for my airline ticket. They are the worst. Instead of them wanted to refund us our money back, they'd rather for us to die and then file a claim.

    Thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear about your negative experience. Both AIG and InsureMyTrip want our customers to choose the correct policy to fit their needs and stress the importance of reviewing your coverage details via the sample Description of Coverage/ Insurance Policy that’s provided at the time of purchase.

    Nevertheless, in order to receive reimbursement under the Trip Cancellation benefit, your cancellation must be due to a covered reason listed in the policy, which unfortunately does not include your sister canceling her destination wedding due to the recent deaths in the Dominican Republic. Since state department travel warnings are not covered reasons under any plan, you would have needed to purchase a policy offering the optional Cancel for Any Reason which would have been available to you with the AIG Travel Guard Gold plan.

    In the future, if you are looking for guidance in selecting a travel insurance plan, please consider contacting our office at 800-487-4722 where a licensed representative would be happy to assist you.

Unfortunately, I had to use my insurance. I had a great customer service experience, and had the reimbursement made in time. I highly recommend this company. Will use again, for sure.
