Travel Insurance
 

Need to make a decision quickly. Situation: What is the best insurance for this situation. Flying AA to Cancun for a week. Parents ill. May need to fly back before our return flight. What insurance(s) would cover the emergency fly back? Any responses would be appreciated, greatly!
Thanks

Bluecross.. I think. But not 100% sure.

Two of the leading travel insurance companies are -

1) Access America - 1-800-654-1908

2) Travel Guard International - 1-800-549-9037

I have an AccessAmerica policy in front of me and it appears to cover your situation. However, your parent will have to have a a serious injury or UNFORSEEN serious medical condition that is considered life threatening or requiring hospitalization, or requiring your care (paraphrased). Also, the policy must be purchased within 14 days of the initial trip payment and must cover the full cost of all trip arrangements. I guess the UNFORSEEN provision might cause a problem as it appears your parent might have a life threatening illness now or be hospitalized already. If you go to AccessAmerica's web site you can send them an e-mail and get a written determination on your situation.
