We are going on a Mediterranean cruise for 12 days. We have Aetna insurance (POS Choice II)–is that enough?

Of another kind asked:

Or, should we purchase travel insurance from CSA for $84 each? I just called Aetna, and they cover any medical related emergencies that we may encounter. Cruise ship’s infirmaries are out of network, so my plan covers me at 75% after a deductible. If I need an emergency room visit, then that would be covered at 100% after a $75 deductible.

Maybe a better question is, if we should get travel insurance, how does CSA stack up against TravelGuard, Insuremytrip, and others?

My husband and I are planning on going on a cruise in November, approx. 3 weeks after he is SUPPOSED to get back from overseas on a deployment. The fear we have is that if his mission gets extended, and we are not able to go (which has happened to other units that are over there with his unit right now). We are weary of travel insurances, as they normally do not cover this. Does anyone know if Carnival will give us a credit for our cruise for us to go later on? Also, what about airlines (we will most likely fly Delta)? If we don’t get refundable tickets, is there a way to turn them into a credit, kind of like Southwest does? I think we can just get a hold on a hotel room but not be obligated to pay unless we cancel less than 24 hours before we are supposed to stay. Anyone with any experience in this?

Don’t you believe that motorcycles should only be allowed to travel where a car can go?

This bit of driving between cars with the high beams on is ridiculous and is costing you 40% more for your auto insurance. Why should you pay for their total disregard for your safety and your pocketbook.

I bought tickets on Monday. The rate has gone down a lot. Can I get a refund of the difference?

Momof3boys asked:

The difference in price is about $150. Should I buy travel insurance for $16 and cancel then rebook the flight? Am I even allowed to do this. I know I can still get the travel insurance.

How can I get US health insurance for my (non US residents) parents (in late 50’s)?

ribciuc asked:

This is both an Immigration question and a Health Insurance question. My parents will start living in the US several months a year or more as legal visitors to live with us until they get green cards and can move here permanently. They are close 56, 59 years old. How do I go about getting them health insurance so unexpected health concerns don’t ruin them, they can get their prescriptions filled w/o paying an arm and a leg, etc?

Are there specialized US insurance companies that offer insurance to non-residents that’s worth anything? I don’t need the gimmicky travel insurance that won’t cover anything or require outrageous deductibles and paperwork sent to some tax haven country … I need a reliable US insurer who can be found, operates under laws of US, has customer service who can explain their policies, etc.

what is the best health insurance company to use in northern rural California?
