    I have used Allianz for a couple of trips and also will be using them for my upcoming cruise from Barcelona, Spain to Rome, Italy in March and have been completely satisfied with them. My recent cruise with my daughter was an occasion where having insurance with Allianz really came in handy as our flight back home had a 5 hour layover in Dublin, Ireland which was fine with us as we would see a little of Dublin, but then they delayed our flight another 5 hours causing us to miss our connecting flight which we had to rebook for the next day as this flight arrived in Boston, MA at 11:30 p.m., so we also had to stay overnight. Allianz promptly sent me a check for the new airline fare and Aer Lingus paid for our hotel stay so I was not out any additional money for this trip.

    My 8 years old son went to Brasil to spend summer with my mother. Purchasing a policy with Allianz was the best decision I made. It turns out that he had trouble breathing while away and had to be seen by a doctor. I contacted Allianz from the US and was given details, of what to do to have Thomas seen by a Doctor and how to file a claim afterwards. My son was very well taken care of. I even received a call from Allianz to check on his well being days later! Once they came back home, with all the receipts and medical report, I applied for a refund and in less than 10 days a check was in my mailbox. International health insurance coverage is that thing you pay hoping never to use. Not only because nobody wants to get sick on vacation but also because of the hassle the after service involves. Allianz made the process smooth and easy! I definitely recommend Allianz and will for sure use it again in the future. Thank you for the excellent service provided!

    I have always purchased insurance but (thankfully) never used it. I purchase it primarily for Medi-vac when traveling out of the country. I never imagined I would need it to help me here in the US and I have a new appreciation for the importance of insurance. We were stuck in the Galveston/Houston mess when Harvey hit the area. Our cruise was cancelled (a little close to the wire) but the airports were down anyway. We did some work and managed to get out - picking up a stranded tourist looking for a way to Dallas and after 4 days were on our way home to Seattle. Allianz was fabulous with my claim and I received the checks in an expedited fashion. I hope I will never need to use my insurance again - but it is comforting to have a company like them behind me.

    My family was planning on a trip to Florida and we wanted a halfway stop on the drive down so we found a hotel and used Priceline to book the hotel rooms. I decided to opt for the trip insurance and I am glad that I did! Hurricane Irma came through and changed our plans and we had to cancel. I went online submitted a claim, and in a day or so (maybe less) I revived a claim package. Most of the forms were pre-printed and I just had to provide a couple receipts and then I faxed it to the Allianz 800 number they provided and within a day I got another email saying they received my forms and were reviewing my claim. Shortly thereafter got another email saying my claim was approved and my refund was already deposited. Very easy process.

    After I went through all the forms and collected all the evidence and bills. I received a decision of approval. I was told to wait 5-10 days for the check, but it never came. Then I was told that it was sent to a wrong address and to wait another 5-10 days. Again never showed up and I am still waiting!!!

    Allianz came through with flying colors! Our return flight, as well as many flights, from Boston was canceled due to weather. Allianz reimbursed us for meals and hotel expenses while we were rebooked for 2 days later. Their online claim form was easy, and their staff were always responsive within 24 hours of submitting an email. I've always used Allianz and will continue to use them. So many items are outside your control... and Allianz covers and insures them! 5 stars isn't enough!

    I can't tell you where we would have been without having this insurance. The money that we have been able to recoup has helped us during this trouble times of hurricane Harvey. We will always be buying this insurance anytime we travel when it is available. Thank you.

    My wife and I had booked an early August cruise to Norway out of Amsterdam including airfare with Holland American Lines in March. In late May I experienced a herniated disc. None of the traditional remedies seemed to work and I was scheduled for back surgery in early August. Our travel agent had recommended Allianz over other alternatives and we are certainly glad we listened to her.

    Once the surgery was scheduled, our agent canceled the cruise and requested the claim forms from Allianz. We carefully reviewed the insurance policy, filled out the easy-to-understand forms, received and provided letters from our medical providers, and provided the other documentation requested. In a few weeks – well within their stated timeline – Allianz sent a check for the full fare less the partial refund we had already received from Holland America upon cancellation. The only thing left was the fee paid for the insurance.

    We were very impressed and appreciated the prompt assistance at a difficult time. As a side note, Hotels.Com was most helpful in canceling non-refundable hotel reservations in Amsterdam and Chicago. Delta Airlines, also allowed us to cancel our flights to and from Chicago and returned all of our frequent flyer miles to our account. Many thanks to all.

    Due to unexpected illness on my husband's part we were unable to travel. Luckily I had taken out travel insurance and called Allianz. They could not have been more helpful. I was able to download all the documents - was given some good advice i.e. make sure to put the claim number on each page for instance. Sent off the claim and within a week a check was posted to my account. First class service all the way. I could not say better! Thank you Allianz!

    Due to a medical issue we had to cancel a cruise and flights. Both were insured with Allianz. I've never had to use trip insurance before and was prepared for a lot of red tape and negotiating. It was a snap. The phone representatives were extremely helpful in guiding me through the process. I was able to handle everything via email by scanning required documentation. Checking the website informed me of the status of the claim. In a very short period of time I received my refunds. I highly recommend Allianz and will be using them for all future travel.

    Flight cancellation - I had a phone conversation with one of your agents, I think his name was Rick. His manner was professional and efficient and the compassion in his voice was so appreciated especially at a difficult time. The claim was handled quickly and resolved to our complete satisfaction.

    Received excellent instructions on how to file when I phoned and talked to the representative. The filing packet was emailed immediately as a PDF. As a result I could fill out the forms and drop the medical portion off at the doctor's office in a timely manner. The forms were emailed and I had the trip cancellation check within 2 weeks. Very impressive service.

    Allianz staff was wonderful when we missed our flight traveling from Scotland through Chicago to get home to Omaha. We had to rent a car to get home. We appreciate the quick refund for the rental car and fuel. I'd use Allianz again & recommend.

    I've never purchased travel insurance before - and we have traveled internationally, domestically and cruises - this time however, my husband has difficulty ambulating waiting for hip replacement surgery, so I purchased insurance and alas, needed to use it. I was pleased with the process of submitting a claim and with the outcome.

    I appreciated the quick accurate response to my dilemma, then I received a check, I deposited it and 3 days later I got a letter from Allianz saying, "Don't deposit the check because it will bounce; we will send a 2nd check EARLY next week to cover the 1st check and any charges your bank charged you for a returned check if you already deposited it." Although this was appreciated it's already Friday and still no check. Life is too short to have to spend time and energy on this kind of thing, just do the right thing by people.
