Cruises are costly and may require large payments or deposits made well in advance of your trip. What if an unforeseen illness, injury, or death in the family causes your trip to be cancelled or interrupted. Could you afford to lose some or all of your prepaid non-refundable trip cost? Therefore, it is important to buy Travel Insurance to protect your travel investment.

Your cruise company or travel agent will surely offer you Travel Insurance, but doesn't it make sense to shop around for your Travel Insurance as well? You shopped around for your cruise. You should shop around for your Travel Insurance!

If the cruise company's Travel Insurance is priced fairly, and does what you need it to do, then great! Go for it . But make sure the policy will pay you back in cash for your non-refundable trip cost if you do have to cancel for a covered reason. Some cruise lines may just offer you a voucher for another cruise. Always double check that fine print!

Our Policy PickerĀ® is the perfect tool for you to use to compare prices and benefits of the policies offered by the top Travel Insurance Providers.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Cruiseline offers insurance. Why should I shop around?
You will most likely save quite a bit of money on the cost of insurance and if you do have to cancel for a covered reason you will get your money back. Not just a voucher for another cruise like some cruiselines do.

If my room mate has to cancel but I still want to go will the insurance cover the single supplement upgrade costs?
Yes. If your traveling companion suffers a serious inury or illness and has to cancel then travel insurance would cover your single supplement upgrade costs.
