Good morning, Member 👋

How are you doing, friends? If you're planning a trip this year, there's one travel detail many Americans don't discover until it's too late. Most travel insurance will get you to the nearest suitable hospital if you're injured or become seriously ill overseas. What it often won't do is bring you home to your preferred hospital. But we’ve recently discovered something that can.* MedJet memberships are designed to transport you to the hospital of your choice back home if you’re hospitalized more than 150 miles from home. It's a little-known difference that many seasoned travelers say is worth understanding before they leave. We’ll explain more about how Medjet works* later in this newsletter.

Whether you're planning your next getaway or simply reminiscing about a favorite one, we'd love to know: If you could revisit any vacation from your past, which would it be—and what made it memorable?

Now, let’s ease into the day with our brain teasers. Yesterday’s riddle answer is an onion! Congratulations to our ever clever Riddle Masters. 🎊

For today’s challenge, unscramble I R K Q U and drop your answer here!

We’ve gathered some useful stories for you today, so let’s dive in!
