This is from the August 5, Washington Post. I had never known this before, so I thought it might be of interest:


Members of AARP now receive an 18 percent discount on MedjetAssist's emergency medical air evacuation program. Various plans are available, including annual memberships and short-term coverage. For example, an annual family membership for a couple and up to five children is $287 (normally $350). The company provides medically equipped and staffed aircraft that fly travelers hospitalized more than 150 miles from home to the hospital of their choice.
