Hi all,
We just booked a two week trip to Europe/Spain this summer and wanted to know if there any reputable, reliable and affordable travel insurance companies I could reach out to to get an insurance quote? I did find a few via google searches, but thought I'd ask the community in case you had to deal with during or after the trip, how things were resolved and recommendation based on that (too). |
What sort of coverage are you looking for? Meaning, what risk do you want to ensure against? Medical coverage? Needing to cancel and get refunds? |
Good question, was thinking a) trip cancellation, b) lost baggage and c) medical |
What credit card did you book your flights with? Does it provide any of those coverages? |
Citi credit card, they used to have coverage before but stopped offering that some years ago. |

That’s a great site, many thanks! |
If you have any questions feel free to call or email them! They are great. |
Will do, thanks again! |
I’ve used Allianz-are they still around. The only time we had an issue (canceling due to illness) they paid quickly with no hassle. |
Europe/Spain? |
Visiting primarily Spain, but also visiting a few nearby countries in Europe also. |
I used Allianz this fall. They were difficult to communicate with, especially from Europe. They paid, sort of. They asked a lot of generic questions (not tailored to my situation), never replied to my queries, and t Therefore underpaid me. But there was no further communication with them. So, they are not a scam but could really improve their customer service. |
I've used insuremytrip.com many times. I generally dont' get insurance for Europe though -- any major medical issue and they will have the facilities there to handle it -- no need for medical evacuation. Different story for some other countries though. |
