Travel insurance provides a vital safety net against unexpected costs that may arise due to the myriad things that can go wrong on the road. That includes everything from illness and injury to canceled flights and lost luggage to the death of a family member back home.

I know, it’s not fun to think about, but travel insurance is the single most important thing you should purchase before your trip. It’s something I strongly advise travelers to never leave home without (I buy it for every single one of my trips). I’ve seen it help many, many people over the years. Myself included.

It’s easier than ever to find a policy that meets your needs and budget, especially with tools out there like InsureMyTrip.

In this InsureMyTrip review, I’ll go over what the company offers and the pros and cons of using them as a service to use when planning your trip.

 

What Is InsureMyTrip?

InsureMyTrip (IMT) is a travel insurance comparison site that has been helping people find their ideal policy since 2000. To be clear, this means that IMT does not provide any of the plans listed on its site. It does not offer any policies or underwrite any claims. Instead, it is a marketplace that makes it easy to find the best plan to meet your needs.

IMT searches all policies across 20 insurance companies according to your search criteria, and you’ll only be shown policies for which you’re eligible. This saves you the frustration of looking for travel insurance policies elsewhere, only to discover that they don’t cover your age range (or other requirements you have).

I’ll get into who IMT is ideal for further on in this review.

How InsureMyTrip Works

InsureMyTrip is a marketplace of 20 insurance providers. It searches all the plans offered by these providers to find the best plan for you. Obviously, this would take a ton of time to do yourself if you checked each policy individually. With IMT, it happens in a matter of seconds once you fill in your trip information and build a quote.

Plus, thanks to InsureMyTrip’s Best Plans Guarantee, you know that you’re only seeing plans with multiple positive ratings and reviews from actual customers.
