The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

MedJetAssist and Allianz are two separate animals. Alliance supplies a full breadth of travel insurance with many of their policies with a provision to transport you to the nearest "adequate" medical facility and then repatriate you after you are healed. MedJet is not insurance, but rather an air ambulance contract to take you, once stabilized, to the medical facility of your choice. We carry both because our traveling frequently takes us to weird corners of the earth and I have a concern about the interpretation of the word "adequate". That said, if our travels were limited to Europe, North America and a handful of specific Asian countries (Israel, Singapore and Japan spring to mind), I probably wouldn't bother with the MedJet contract. (Not advice, just what I would do).
