There are a million different travel insurance companies and plans. You can compare plans at Insure my Trip, a TTOL sponsor. For medical evac only, consider Sky Med, which takes you back to your home. For either company, if you book through the link here, you pay the same price, but TTOL gets a small commission.

I purchased Sky Med last December. It covered both of us for 8 days for only $120.00. Thankfully we didn't have to use it.
Also, purchased trip insurance from Delta, when I bought the tickets. Can't remember how much it was, but it wasn't too much.

Some of the higher annual fee credit cards offer it now. Check that out before you buy anything.
For anything travel related that is hard to cancel in an emergency, I always use my Chase Sapphire Reserve and get full insurance for "free"

we use insure my trip every time to get ttol some loot. ALways easy. One trick, check the policy coverages. Oddly enough the basic is more expensive than other offerings with less coverage. My guess is they are trying to trick folks

"the basic is more expensive than other offerings with less coverage"?????? What am I missing here? Something should be more expensive if it has MORE coverage.
