Is the state employee covered by travel insurance
if a plane goes down for mechanical reasons and the traveler's ticket was purchased with the
State of Kansas Travel Card?
- If the ticket is purchased using the State of Kansas Travel Card, and there is
a mechanical failure of the aircraft and a loss of life of the traveler, there is coverage of
$500,000 which is paid to the estate of the employee.
- If a ticket is purchased using the State of Kansas Travel Card, and there is a
loss of life of the traveler from an act of " war" or "terrorism",
the employee is not covered by travel insurance. This noncoverage of travel
insurance is a result of the United state being officially "at war"
since September 11, 2001.
