travel insurance

[Diamond_Girls]

Has anyone obtain travel insurance from a company called Travelex, plan name Travel Plus?

It looks like their rates are much cheaper than Disney's...

thanks for your help!

They are the company I have used for insurance for many African photo safaris I've done. I've never had to make any claims, but they are reputed to be an excellent company as well as having reasonable pricing.

We also just purchased Travelex after quite a bit of looking around. They were by far the least expensive, actually had better coverage than some others, and I couldn't find any complaints on line about them anywhere. They also have the shortest periods associated with pre-existing conditions (for folks who didn't purchase the insurance when they made their deposit -- like us!). They do have a specific list of cruise companies that they won't insure you for going out of business (Disney isn't one of them).

When my sister booked our cruise she got the insurance Disney offers... my question is... does anyone know off the top of there head what all this covers or can you point me to a webpage that has this info listed?

ty in advance.

Here's the link to the pop-up on the DCL site about their travel insurance: http://disneycruise.disney.go.com/disneycruiseline/shared/popups/popupindex?id=TravelInsurancePopup&popup=true&w=539&h=300

When you're looking at travel insurance, be aware that to avoid pre-existing condition exclusions you need to buy it immediately after you make your deposit (which is what we should have done).

To compare DCL's insurance with other policies, take a look at this site: http://www.insuremytrip.com/
(this is how we found out about Travelex)

A lot of people of people also seem to like a company called CSA.
