Flights & Emergencies

Budget Flights in USA

Frontier and Spirit Airlines are the two major low-cost airlines in the USA. To travel the long distances, flights are the best option. You can get really cheap tickets if you buy them in advance. Although there are a few other websites like airfarewatchdog.com and Skiplagged.com to get dirt cheap deals, alerts and tricked fares.

How to deal with the Emergencies

If you have an emergency like medical or theft or anything that requires immediate attention, call 911 immediately. 911 is a universal number for use across the USA for any kind of emergency. If you need help but is not an emergency and you have no other option, call 311 (please double check depending on City ). Also If you can’t figure out anything, go talk to a Police Officer (sitting in a Police car or if you see one) they are very helpful. Indians, in general, are really helpful, even if you don’t know them.

Medical emergency in USA

Medical expenses in USA are very high. Please make sure it is a good practice to cover yourself against any medical emergencies while you are in USA. Out of pocket medical is very high. I would advise you to get a Travel Insurance Plan for USA. You can also buy Medical Insurance before you travel from India but I would suggest picking provider who is local to USA as it would ease your claim and approval process.
