Aren't those type of insurance cover only the duration of the flight? For Schengen, they require another coverage while you are visiting the EU countries for medical and other emergency cases.

For my BDO Amex card, the travel insurance coverage is for the duration of my trip. The insurer is Pacific Cross. They are Schengen accredited.
