Up to US$150,000 per person (if a Family Membership) evacuation cover is valid whether the accident is diving related or not during any travel trip.
Your Emergency Evacuation Benefit does not include Search & Rescue efforts to locate a person (injured or un-injured) whose location is unknown, or efforts to rescue such persons from a dangerous situation or location.
Note: The 80km evacuation rule is waived in the case of diving emergencies only where a Member has elected to take out Optional Dive Injury (Treatment) Insurance.
