"We're Going No Matter What"

This is what customers frequently tell us when we offer them travel insurance.

It's a fine sentiment, but it strikes me that by the mere utterance of those words invites Murphy to your door. It has happened again today. A client who is supposed to be at the airport today called to let us know that one of his children awoke with a fever this morning. That child is supposed to come on the trip.

The last we heard from him they were at the doctor attempting to decide if they were going to be able to take their trip. (They are under 100% penalty on their trip...no insurance...)

No matter what indeed....
