SkyWatch Replacement

[Droneman82]

Hello everyone,

Since Skywatch doesn't cover hobbyists anymore, have you all found a company that offers the same sort of coverage? I'm looking for a company that will cover me just for 2 weeks at a time when I travel.

Thus far, it looks like Air Moto will do hourly, but I haven't found anyone that will do just 2 weeks.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello everyone,

Just a quick update as to what I discovered, for anyone else looking into it:
1. there are a few options out there, but most cover the drone by the hour or annually.
2. Coverdrone will cover it by the month, but only in EU countries and a few others.
3. I didn't try State Farm but I did try the company that I have my house and car insured with. They said no.
4. Athos insurance had me fill out a form and all looked promising. It eventually sent me to a portal, which was skywatch. Another drone pilot informed me that Skywatch no longer insures recreational pilots and I did see an article that stated the same. HOWEVER, it allowed me to purchase the insurance like I always had before. I don't know if it was because I was grandfathered in or what. Good to know though!
