Secure the Right Cover for Your Princess Cruise

Sailing with Princess Cruises offers an exceptional blend of luxurious amenities, world-class dining, and enriching activities designed for travellers looking for adventure and relaxation in their holidays. With itineraries that span the globe, from the sun-soaked Caribbean and the Mediterranean to the majestic landscapes of Alaska, Princess Cruises provides unforgettable experiences on the high seas. To ensure you are well-protected, it is crucial to have appropriate Cruise Travel Insurance. Here’s an overview of the cruise insurance requirements for Princess Cruises and how Just Travel Cover can meet them, providing peace of mind on your Princess Cruise holiday.

Required Cover for Princess Cruise

Suitable to Cover Cruises:  Make sure your Travel Insurance explicitly covers cruise holidays. Cruise Travel Insurance is mandatory for all UK guests cruising with Princess Cruise and you may need to provide a copy of your policy before you step on board.

Full Trip and All Destinations: Ensure your cruise insurance covers the entire duration of your cruise, including any pre- or post-cruise stays, and all destinations on your itinerary. Medical costs can vary significantly by country so it is important to make sure these are listed separately and nothing is missed, whether you are spanning countries or continents.

Emergency Medical Expenses: Princess Cruise recommends its guests have substantial cover for medical expenses and emergency evacuations as medical costs can vary by country and quickly escalate.

Pre-Existing Conditions: Princess Cruise follows a strict policy regarding passengers with pre-existing medical conditions. Guests must disclose any existing medical conditions at the time of booking and when securing Cruise Travel Insurance for the trip. Failure to declare pre-existing medical conditions can affect your ability to make a claim under all, or part of, the policy.

Cancellation Cover: Adequate cancellation cover that covers at least the cost of your trip is recommended, especially for high-value cruises offered by Princess. This should also be secured as soon as possible after booking your trip to secure cancellation cover should anything prevent you from travelling, especially if your Princess Cruise is booked far in advance.

Proof of Cruise Insurance: Princess Cruises advises carrying proof of your Cruise Travel Insurance to present if requested.
