Setting Sail? Don’t Forget Cruise Travel Insurance
Travel Insurance is a crucial part of any trip – especially Cruise holidays. If something goes wrong, either onboard the ship or before you depart, Cruise Travel Insurance can cover you against the unexpected.
Before you embark on your cruise adventure, there may be many things occupying your mind – luggage, checking in, and boarding. It’s not often you anticipate an emergency to occur, but Travel Insurance for cruises is there to protect you from any unforeseen events such as travel delays or medical emergencies.
At Just Travel Cover, you can compare multiple specialist insurers and prices to find suitable Travel Insurance for cruises catered to your specific needs. This includes things like missed port departure and cabin confinement cover, which are benefits included on some policies. Most of our Cruise Travel Insurance providers will offer cover for cancellation, loss of possessions and the cost of emergency medical treatment – this might involve transport to an on-land hospital for care. Cruise Travel Insurance will also cover repatriation – the costs associated with getting you back to the UK – for example, if a medical emergency results in you missing the remainder of your cruise and the scheduled return home. If you’re searching for Travel Insurance with cruise cover, you’re in the right place.
Cruise Travel Insurance Including Cover for Medical Conditions
Securing Travel Insurance for cruise holidays is essential for protecting your health, safety, and investment. Our Travel Insurance for cruises has no age limit, although this does depend on where you’re going, your age and for how long. Our cruise holiday insurance policies include cover for hundreds of Pre-existing Medical Conditions, and if you are visiting multiple destinations while away, they are included in our Cruise Travel Insurance policies. In this instance, you will need to select each country you will be visiting and list all medical conditions on your cruise Travel Insurance. Whatever your circumstances, cruise holiday insurance offers peace of mind and ensures you have protection for any unforeseen events. If you need information about insurance for a specific cruise line, cruise destination, or type of cruise, or if you want details related to your age or medical history for a cruise, please visit our tailored cruise Travel Insurance pages below.

Cruise Travel Insurance FAQs
Frequently asked questions about our Cruise Travel Insurance policies.
What is cruise Travel Insurance?
Cruise Travel Insurance will provide protection for things that might go wrong on the run-up to your cruise or while you’re on board. While regular Travel Insurance is not always mandatory, Travel Insurance for cruises is often a requirement. Many cruise lines require boarders to provide a copy of their Cruise Travel Insurance policy before they set sail. Before you go on holiday, it’s important to check cruise insurance requirements to see what you’re covered for. Unlike regular Travel Insurance, some cruise insurance policies include benefits specific to cruising, such as missed port departure and cabin confinement cover.
What does Cruise Travel Insurance cover?
You may need to cancel your cruise because of a medical emergency or the death of a loved one, or you may need emergency medical treatment onboard. Cruise Travel Insurance will cover costs if you need transportation to a hospital on land and treatment in a foreign hospital. There are also additional benefits with some insurers, including cabin confinement and cruise interruption cover, for example, if you need treatment on dry land but are then confirmed well enough to rejoin your cruise. If you have a pre-existing medical condition, having the right Cruise Travel Insurance protects you if you experience any issues related to your condition whilst on the cruise.
