My Broken Back Cost Much Less in France Than Travel Insurance

 In January this year, I wrote an article about how unnecessary travel insurance is if you pay for your trip with a branded credit card such as United Explorer, American AAdvantage, or Delta Sky Miles Gold. I based this article on my own research, personal experience, and the experience of a friend who broke her leg when we were traveling in the Provence region of France in 2005. Little did I know last January that I'd have a chance to update my theories this spring, sixteen years later.
