J1 Visa and insurance requirements

FlyingFroggy17 · February 12th, 2006, 17:24

Hi all,
I'm from france and hopefully going to start the professional program soon.
I'm actually looking for an insurance that covers the requirements.
The fact is that most of the insurances preclude the use of aircraft.
Could those of you who are on a J1 visa tell me how you did it?
Thank you very much for the numerous answers to come.
Have fun!!!

Well I ran into the same problem, From what mike told me is that your insured to fly when your at Ari Ben but you need insurance to cover bringing your body back in the event of an accident.

Hey FF17,
I'm from Hungary and I'm arriving Feb22 for the pro course! When are you arriving and which airport? I'm taking AF from BUD through CDG and ATL to PBI.
I've had the same concerns about this insurance thing and have done much research on it. From all the replies I got from various companies, it seems that "Visit USA Healthcare" plan by AIG, with extra Hazardous Activity Coverage will be the right one, for me it's $75.6/month.
If you're under 30, it's $54/month.
