Default AAA and airlifting

Hi, again not sure where to post this. I believe if you have the "superior" or delux Triple A plan that they will airlift you out of an area to a hospital without cost if there is a medical emergency. This is my understanding although all should check first. I had mine upgraded to this at little cost. It's just an added thing to have when travelling that can be really great. Talk to them about the details.

This coverage sounds good. From what I've seen, most of these types of policies cover compeletely unanticipated events. Traveling for surgery, then having a complication is not something that would be covered by the policies I've seen.
