Ensure Appropriate Cover for Your Virgin Voyages Cruise
Sailing with Virgin Voyages offers an adult-exclusive, luxurious cruise experience designed for reflection, rest and adventure. Ensuring you have the right Cruise Travel Insurance is essential for a relaxing journey. Here’s an overview of the cruise insurance requirements for Virgin Voyages and how Just Travel Cover can meet them, providing peace of mind before and during your cruise holiday.
Required Cover for Virgin Voyages
Suitable to Cover Cruises: Ensure your Travel Insurance explicitly covers cruise holidays. This can be done by answering ‘yes’ to the cruise question when securing a policy with Just Travel Cover. We will only show you policies that can cover your Virgin Voyages cruise, however, please ensure that you select a cover that is suitable for you, checking for any cruise specific benefits you may require.
Full Trip and All Destinations: Your Virgin Voyages Cruise Travel Insurance should cover 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 crucial that you declare each country on your policy.
Emergency Medical Expenses: Virgin Voyages recommends having adequate cover for medical expenses and emergency evacuations. It’s usually recommended that this is at least $100,000 (£75,000) for medical expenses and $250,000 (£187,500) for medical evacuation. All of our policies provide higher limits than these minimum requirements so you can rest assured you’re protected.
Pre-Existing Conditions: Please declare any pre-existing medical conditions to ensure they are covered. Failure to declare these conditions could lead to a claim being rejected.
Cancellation Cover: Have sufficient cancellation cover to protect the cost of your trip. This is particularly important for high-value cruises offered by Virgin Voyages – we can cover up to £12,500 per person as standard, and up to £50,000 via our top up cancellation policy (phone only).
Proof of Cruise Insurance: Virgin Voyages advises carrying proof of your Cruise Travel Insurance, either printed or digital, to present if requested.
