Insurance...Alaska vs Canada

[Ted Waltman]

I know. I made the same point in several emails to no avail. No logic
to it for sure. Some "person" at the insurance agency obviously has a
mental block about anything to do with Alaska. Amongst other points, I
asked what the difference is, risk-wise, between flying to, say, Dawson
in the Yukon Territory versus Anchorage with all it's services, et
cetera. As you might expect, I did not receive any answer. You can't
argue with "them" whoever "they" are.

I doubt if it would make an impression if these guys are already
delusional enough to think that Alaska is more risky than Northern
Canada which lacks oh let's see -weather services, approach aids,
maintanance, decent runways, alternate airports, FSS stations, fuel...

I think you need to remind these guys that Alaska is in fact part of
the
U.S. I saw an article once that said of people stopped on the street

in New

York City, only 32% knew that Alaska was part of the U.S. My mom

brought a

friend up here last summer and she called wanting to know if she could
change her U.S. dollars up here or if she needed to do it before she

came

up!

Sheesh!

Thought I'd let everyone know the results of my insurance search for
the Moose.

Full coverage, liability $1M/$100K, Hull $160K (U.S.), Not-in-Motion:
$3,343.00 or 2.1% of value

Only one company would quote coverage (I talked to 4 different agents
who checked everyone possible): U.S. Specialty

Coverage includes flights anywhere in the U.S. (of course) and
anywhere in Canada

Coverage does not include Alaska.

Cost for a 30-day rider for flights anywhere in Alaska is 25% of the
premium, or $836 in my case. The Alaska rider is "flat fully earned"
which means that once you put the 30-day rider in force, there is no
prorate or refund whatsoever if you decide at the last minute not to
fly in Alaska or only fly in Alaska for 1 day.
