Does Choice Air = Travel Insurance?

[BobInPa]

Or is it just a fee to allow RCI to know what your flights are?

 

I had always assumed that it was a replacement for the type of insurance that you are prompted to buy after booking airline tickets online.

Choice Air is the name of the program that 'assists' you with booking your air. It is a booking engine primarily, just like any online booking engine from a travel agency. The flight choices are more limited than on a general booking engine, as the cruise line has agreements with select flights and times, and you usually have a couple of extra perks (such as getting you to the first port) but it does not substitute for travel insurance.
