I now have travel insurance through Emergency Assistance Plus. It is $189.00 for the year for both of us. They are endorsed by the American Legion, VFW, Marine Corp and many others.
Because we are American Legion members, we got the insurance for $109.00 per year.
I know people who have had to use it and they said awesome.
Bonny...correct me if I'm wrong, but you have to pay that money up front, so you need a credit card with a limit that high. Your insurance will reimburse you at a later date.

When shopping for travel insurance, make sure you get the coverage you might need and not cheap it out. You could be sorry, if something happens unexpectedly.
