Travel Insurance without Health Coverage? Can I get it?
 
I'd like basic insurance to cover lost bagage and flight delays, etc., but not health coverage because I'm already covered. Any advice?

The price for travel insurance is nominal enough that even if you couldn't find it without health coverage you shouldn't be out too much money. Most travel insurance only covers dire emergencies for health anyway, i.e. needing to be evacuated kind of stuff. At least as far as I remember.

I've used World Nomads 3 times but haven't had to make a claim so far. Hope this helps! :)

I think medical coverage adds the most cost to these plans. So yeah, it might only cost $200 for 4 months of insurance, but that's probably over $150 worth of insurance that I actually don't need.

Looks like its not possible to get without medical coverage, and since I'm not bringing much in the way of valuables, I'll just go without.

I have used World Nomads also. Tony has an affiliate link on the main page :)
