Self diagnosed "worry wort" here...

[MacFam4]

Ok, I don't mean to be such a pessimist, but I have this terrible feeling that we will have to cancel our May trip. We have a couple of family situations going on that have the potential to be cause for cancelling. I try to be positive, but I am a worrier. If we have to cancel, we wouldn't be able to go until NOVEMBER That seems like sooooo long to wait!

Anyway, I did buy the trip insurance, so has anyone ever had to cancel? How big of a deal is it? Did you reschedule?

I worry too much

Try to think positive. Wait as long as you can before you cancel to see if things work themselves out.

As far as insurance, do you have a policy that allows you to "cancel for any reason"? (You usually need to pay extra for that option.) If not, there are generally very strict guidelines for situations when they will pay out if you cancel (for instance, I think ours pays only if we would lose a job, but we would need to have been employed there for so many years first; or for a medical problem where a doctor says the trip is not an option, etc.). Check your policy
