On Friday, 1/29 at 1 PM EST we will have Jim Grace, the CEO of InsureMyTrip.com speaking to us on our podcast radio show, on the internet at www.skysteward.info. As was mentioned in a post above, InsureMyTrip provides a way to comparison shop for the best policy. You just enter your trip data and get a list of companies/policies that meet your needs.

Only about 1/3 of travelers buy travel insurance, and I know medical evacuation is a topic that is not fully understood by most of us. The recent tragedy in Haiti puts it into sharp focus -- disaster happens when we least expect it. Medical evacuation can cost $50,000, and many, if not most, health care plans do not cover it.

Call in and talk to the man who knows everything you ever wanted to know about travel insurance. If you miss hearing the show live you can listen to the archived show anytime on the site, or download it at iTunes.

Our call-in line is (917) 889-3203
