There are basically two types of travel insurance. One is for trip interruption or cacellation and the other is for medical evac. Some policies have both but not all.

The trip cancellation varies greatly based on the terms of the policy so make sure you know all of the terms so when comparing price you are comparing for the same type of policy.

Medical evac is also based on the terms of the policy. Some are to the nearest medical facility (which for SXM could be either Miami or PR). Others take you back home to your hospital.

One the sponsors page you have Insure My Trip to compare many policies and also Skymed which is medical evac that takes you home. Several people here have had to use Skymed in the past.

If you use the links on the Sponsors page, then we can get a small comission if you purchase a policy.
