Default Insurance?

Hi!

I have a question regarding insurance. From what i heard only the planes are insured. Guess this means that you dont have to pay for a damaged plane. But what about personal injury? Am i insured if i suffer a major injury during flight? I have talked to the school and they say that insurance regarding personal injury is up to me to get, another student at the school told me that once you are a student you are fully covered. I`m pretty confused so if anyone who knows the deal could tell me i would appreciate it.

See you guys in a few weeks!

/Andreas

No. If you get hurt in the airplane due to an accident/incident you're not covered! If the school told you that, then that's how it is. Don't listen to that student, they obviously don't know how insurance works.

Medical insurance is available here. I would look into that if you're concerned about it.
