Why are you buying travel insurance

Another vote for insuremytrip.com They let you choose from among providers. I use it quite often. WOrks great.

Thanks for the tip on that site. I had some questions about specific coverage and it was also indicating to call them to add the optional Cancel for Any Reason part. Today, however, I see that part is purchasable online. Maybe they opened it up due to not being able to answer their calls!

I can't even get through to AIG over the last week to get insurance. What is going on with them? I used them last fall with no problems. It makes me question if they would come through now or reachable if needed. Anybody have recent experiences, good or bad?
