Insurance with kids

[WASUP]

We are a party of 6, three adults and three kids...we are looking at 137 a piece for insurance, can you just insure the adults, as if anything were to happen to the children, we would certainly no go, either way, if they were a part of the cruise or staying home..

 

Thanks

The way I understand the Princess insurance, if you are 2 adults and 2 children (under 18) in a cabin for 4, you only have to pay the insurance for the 2 adults. If the kids are in a cabin by themselves, I would imagine you would have to pay their insurance separately. This is the link to the Princess insurance:

I would strongly recommend talking to your TA and/or calling Princess for clarification. Have a great cruise!

I always get my cruise insurance through http://www.insuremytrip.com

They have way better rates than Princess' insurance and more comprehensive

coverage as well.

 

I have used Travelex insurance and Travel Guard. Both are rated very highly.

I know with Travelex kids under 16 are free to insure.

Ok that helps me alot.....thanks...so just the adults, do u have to even place the kids on the policy? Such as Tavelex? Can I say just the three adults?

 

Thanks

With Travelex you enter the ages of ALL the travelers and when purchasing it ask for the names of ALL the travelers.

If having the kid on the policy is not going to cost you anything what advantage could there be to leaving him/her off?

 

And if that kid needs a $20,000 airlift off the ship you'll be awfully sorry tou passed up the opportunity to insure that cost for nothing.

Thanks alot...I placed the kids and it was like an extra 30 for all of them

 

Way to go

For the small cost of insuring the kids, you are not only insuring against cancellation, but also if one of them losses baggage, your trip is delayed, or if one of them were to become sick on the cruise, the ship's doctor bill would also be covered. It's a small price to pay for the peace of mind.
