Insurance for accident on common carriers

Hate to sound morbid. I remember when credit cards had the automatic benefit of an accidental death/injury policy on common carriers if the ticket was purchased with such credit card. Do any cards still offer that? Just out of curiosity, I called FNBO (my Best Western rewards mastercard) and they said no, the card does not have such a benefit. P.S. the card is issued by First Bank. It used to be First National Bank of Omaha (FNBO) but they combined or changed name or whatever, they are now called First Bank

From what I’ve seen, many premium credit cards include common carrier travel accident insurance, but the coverage varies widely. It usually kicks in if you purchased the fare with the card. Still, I always double-check the terms—some exclude ride shares or international carriers. For peace of mind, I sometimes add standalone travel insurance if the trip feels risky.
