Now That You Got A Great Cruise Deal, Don't Risk It By Bypassing Cruise Insurance
We get it... insurance is a rather boring topic and you'd rather not waste time reading about it. None of us assumes anything will ever happen to us. But...
- Can you afford to lose your investment in great cruise deals if you unexpectedly have to miss your cruise vacation?
- Can you afford the cruise cancellation penalties and additional cost of returning home if you are forced to end your trip abruptly, an emergency at home perhaps, or of being unexpectedly hospitalized while on vacation?
- Or what if an airline goes on strike? Remember Eyjafjallajökull in 2010 (that Icelandic volcano that brought Europe to a standstill)?
Please review the coverages you receive with our Premier Gold or Premier Platinum plans from TravelGuard. Other plans are also available: compare pricing for various plans.
Enlightened cruise travelers recognize the need to protect their cruise vacation deals by purchasing travel insurance protection -- because bad things do happen to good people. The right plan can cover penalties should you have to change or cancel your vacation plans -- even for any reason. See more reasons to consider travel insurance.
Why We Recommend Travel Guard
We have vetted many policies -- some are quite good; others are lacking in important coverages or how they handle claims. Cruise lines also offer their own, but theirs isn't really insurance, and offers limited protection. TravelStore offers plans with Travel Guard, the industry's leading provider. Purchasing is quick and convenient from your TravelStore cruise expert or online, and provides essential coverage, excellent medical evacuation support and 24/7 assistance.
Most important is the care and quality of service Travel Guard provides you when it counts most. Believe me, we know from experience: Each year we have a number of clients that encounter unfortunate situations and have to file claims.
Primary vs. Secondary Medical Coverage
We recommend a plan that offers primary medical coverage, and primary trip cancellation and interrupion coverage, as with our Premier Gold and Premier Platinum plans. The cost of emergency medical care overseas, or at sea, can be astounding. There's huge benefits to primary medical coverage in an emergency. Many other plans do not offer primary coverage.
Cancel For Any Reason Coverage
Cancel for Work Reasons coverage is included in the two plans we recommend. As your best safety net, Cancel For Any Reason coverage is optionally available. Numerous things not typcially covered by travel insurance can occur that may require you to cancel a cruise vacation. Cancel For Any Reason is the only way to provide the most comprehensive coverage for your cruise vacation.
Of Course, The Choice Is Yours...
We've seen far too many situations where customers that didn't buy travel insurance coverage ended up needing it. We require our customers to have some form of coverage when they travel OR provide us written notice they choose to waive such protection. For answers to frequently asked questions, please review our travel insurance FAQs.
