Short and Sweet – Letter From the President

Posted on May 5, 2009

By Roy Berger, Medjet President/CEO

Spring gets ready to roll into summer. Baseball season moves into full bloom. Basketball and hockey get ready to move stage right and crown their champions. And, about this time of year, it becomes Short-Term Membership Season at the MedjetAssist offices in Birmingham, Alabama.

Mom’s, Dad’s, Grandma’s and Pop’s begin to prepare the kids for summer travel.  Some are going off to camp; others are traveling the globe for the first time perhaps with organized tour groups. Then there is the mainstream staying in the States but visiting family and friends from the East Coast to the West Coast. And now with the swine flue virus scare it is more important than ever that people travel with a ‘protection’ plan.

As the bags are being packed we have seen, in increasing demand, parents and grandparents not wanting to send the kids away without a MedjetAssist card with them. And with that demand we always see a spike in short-term memberships during the summer months.

As a Medjet member you are protected wherever and whenever you travel over 150 miles from home.
However, it’s certain you will know someone that is getting ready to take a holiday journey in the upcoming months or preparing to send the kids off for a jaunt.

Recommend that they too carry the Medjet card!  Our short-term memberships of 7, 14, 21 and 30 days are perfect for those perhaps only taking one trip this year.  With the travel economy in the condition it is, we are seeing more folks whose travel patterns have changed and perhaps they now are only taking a trip or two in a given year. And with that we have seen an uptick in our short-term membership sales.

Our short-term memberships start at $95 for seven days and then incrementally increase to 14, 21 and 30 days.  A very small price to pay for your peace of mind, not to mention the doubled peace of mind when you are sending that son, daughter or grandchild away for a summer fun trip and visit.

For complete information on the Medjet Short-Term Membership please visit www.medjet.com or call any of our membership services associates at 1-800-527-7478 and they will be glad to help with the membership option best for your or your loved ones.

Safe Travels

    I am planning to travel with Globeriders, motorcycle adventures, across Eurasia in 2010. I have been to Central and South America for five years running riding bikes, mostly with my wife as passenger. Now with ‘Spot’ i feel much more comfortable knowing i will be able to connect instantly with Med Jet Assist. Even if you can afford to send a jet to pick you up, it’s the ease and timeliness of getting it done that makes Med Jet Assist so valuable. I ride in Europe every year for 6 weeks and have also ridden to Alaska a couple times, and around Africa and feel this could be the very best value with all the money I spend for other insurances (13 vehicles total)
