I asked this on the RCCL but it was suggested I do it here for better knowledge. We have B2B cruise booked late August from Copenhagen. First is a 7 day and the next a 14 day. When buying insurance, should I buy separate policies for each leg of the trip or one policy covering the 21 days. My thoughts were, if something happened and we couldn't do the first leg and were able to do the second, would that effect the coverage I buy, again, one policy for both trips or one for each leg? Second part is a question on coverage/price. What we paid for this cruise, almost 2 years ago, and several lift and shifts latter is about 1/3 of what this cruise is going for now. Like we paid about $1500 and now it is about $4500. When putting down the cost of the cruise, am I using the original cost or what it would cost to redo the cruise if we couldn't go? Some one also suggested an annual policy which does sound intriguing. Thanks for any help Cheers Len

Thanks so much I have one other question. We are on a TA/Icelandic cruise which is the product of 3 different Lift and Shifts. Our initial cost to book the original cruise was about $1500 total. For the same cabin on this cruise, the cost is about $4000. When I was looking at the insurance, they ask for the cost, and I enter $4000 as that would be the price to replace this cruise if we couldn't go, but does the insurance company ask for the original booking cost or the current cost? Cheers Len

Thanks for all the replies. My reasoning for asking about one insurance for the entire trip or one for the first and another for the second. We will be in Copenhagen for both cruises and we are arriving about 3 days pre cruise #1. We need to get tested before we board, so I was thinking say we tested positive, we would have to miss the first leg but still may be able to go on the second. If we had one insurance package for the 3 weeks, would this be of any help considering we could still do the second leg? I will definitely look into an annual plan. I never thought o that. Cheers Len

We always buy insurance for all our cruises but in late August and early September we are doing a B2B on the Voyager. First is a 7 day and then a 14-day Icelandic TA. My question is should we buy insurance for the 21 days straight or separate it into two separate cruises, the first for a 7 day and then another for the 14 day. We have never done anything like this before and just curious as to how others approach something like this, especially in this Covid era? Cheers Len

Thanks for all the replies. Sounds like it should happen. Cheers Len

As of now, we are Emerald with 69 points. We have a 7 day cruise booked for June which will bring us to 76 points. Now the question part, we have a B2B cruise at the end of August, first leg is a 7 day cruise from Copenhagen, which would bring us to 80 points and make us Diamond. The second leg is a TA Icelandic cruise-------will we be Diamond for that cruise? On our last cruise I asked at the Crown and Anchor desk and the lady said we should tell them, on the first leg, that with this cruise we would be over the 80 points required for Diamond and she said we SHOULD be Diamond on the TA. Would anyone have any knowledge of something like this and is she correct, that we would become Diamond for the TA? Cheers Len

Thanks to all who replied. I already have filled out the form and just have to wait to get my pre cruise test. My question was more about people who do NOT know about this form and money just to be able to get on the ship or disembark ion Bermuda. That's why we come here to get informed. Once again, thanks. Cheers Len

We ae arriving Bermuda on a Saturday and leaving on Sunday. Does that mean we cannot use the ferry? Cheers Len

We are sailing into Bermuda on the RCCL Enchantment on May 7th. Because I regularly visit CC and the forum's, I learned about this form that must be filled out and the $40PP required to enter Bermuda. I booked this cruise thru and online TA and they never told me about it. If I didn't come here regularly, I never would have known about it. So what happens if cruisers didn't know and wanted to disembark once arriving in Bermuda? I would assume that they cannot enter the country, but does the cruise line, like this RCCL, help them before boarding or once aboard? I'm sure there have to be several passengers who will not know about the required travel form, are they forced top remain onboard? Cheers Len
