Question for the world travelers

Has anyone every heard or dealt with AAA Medflight Freedom? Apparently it's a company associated with AAA that offers vacationers: Emergency Medical Evacuation, Transportation to your hospital of choice, emergency travel arrangements, etc. We've called AAA and they assured they are a sponsor of this company. Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with them?
Thanks,
Russ

No I haven't but in my experience most companies sponsored by AAA are reputable.

I have similar insurance DAN (Divers Alert Network) when I travel abroad.

I only use it when traveling to remote places without good medical care. If something goes wrong they come and get you via jet.

It is normally a couple hundred bucks for the trip and I simply calculate it into the cost of a remote trip. For remote places in the South Pacific, South America, Africa, it is well worth it.
