Editor Review
The Good: A premier offering from IMG, this package plan includes a good number of covered reasons for trip cancellations and interruptions. In addition, travel delays, enhanced baggage coverage, emergency medical treatment and evacuations are also covered. This is a package plan with comfortable limits for international and domestic vacations. This plan is re-packaged from iTravelInsured.
The Drawbacks: Available only to U.S. residents traveling at least 120 miles from home.
The Bottom Line: IMG is typically focused on travel medical, but this is one of their travel insurance package plans with premium benefits. It offers all the essential trip coverage expected, but no options are available to enhance the plan.
