In this episode of A Wiser Retirement® Podcast, we discuss the importance of commercial airline pilot medical disability planning and why it’s often overlooked compared to life insurance. We explain how airline disability benefits work, the differences between short-term and long-term coverage, and why “own occupation” policies are essential. The conversation also covers supplemental insurance options, union vs. non-union benefits, and strategies to ensure your financial plan can withstand a sudden loss of income.
