CLS/KAS Posted March 5, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Hello all.. quick question. not happy w the travel insurance being offered through Carnival for our cruise.($79pp) I know I have read on here in the past, there is a company that offers better coverage. I will be booking airline tickets through travelocity, which does have a great policy.. so covered there.. looking for better protection on board. tks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted March 5, 2016 #2 Share Posted March 5, 2016 There are lots of options out there. We use http://www.insuremytrip.com to look at a range of policies. Their tool makes it easy to compare policies. keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest maddycat Posted March 5, 2016 #3 Share Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) For several years I have been buying our travel insurance through the Trip Insurance Store. I call and speak to one of their agents who will suggest which policy will best meet my needs. https://tripinsurancestore.com/ Edited March 5, 2016 by maddycat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clackey Posted March 6, 2016 #4 Share Posted March 6, 2016 We were scheduled to sail on the Norwegian Jade in late November 2015, so what does my better half do? She falls and fractures a vertebrae in her back 3 weeks before the cruise. She spent 9 days in the hospital, had back surgery where they removed part of a rib and fused her T12 vertebrae and had 32 staples in an 8" incision. Then she spent 4 months wearing a molded back brace. Now 4 months later she is out of the brace and back to work. Luckily I had taken out trip insurance thru insuremytrip. It took 6 weeks, but we got everything back except the insurance fees and a $100 deposit with our booking agent. It is refundable if we re-book within the year. So please, please take out insurance. We all think that nothing can happen to us, but it can and does. I knew Ginger D was getting better when she told me to start looking for another cruise. She is going to make it.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been cut, hit, rolled a jeep and been shot at, but I haven't jumped off of a cliff in 30 years. I may be crazy but I am like a jarhead, smarter that I look.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
