[quote=Anonymous]My parent bought trip insurance for a cruise. Worthless for them. I'm trying to remember the timeline but it went something like this: August 18, dad goes to the doctor because his toe is hurting, thinking ingrown nail or something. August 19, they book their cruise for November. Between August and November, my dad's toe get's a bad infection and it's really getting bad - four doctors later, a doctor said don't go on this cruise, you might not be able to walk very well. Don't want this getting worse while you're stuck on a ship. They invoke the insurance, they refuse to pay because that August 18 visit to the doctor was a "known medical condition that resulted in the cancellation of the trip." But the insurance is advertised as "any reason, or no reason at all." My mom was going to sue them, but when my dad died of sepsis, she didn't really give a shit anymore, but that's another thread I suppose.

TL/DR: cancellation for 'any reason or no reason' doesn't mean shit.[/quote]
