Cruisin' Along Posted October 31, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 31, 2017 We are taking a repositioning cruise thru the Panama Canal. Trip insurance quotes request destination. We leave from Florida and end in California with port visits in several countries. The insurance cost varies by $200 depending which port I list as the destination. What port do you list as destination for repositioning cruises? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easyboy Posted October 31, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Not sure what kind of insurance coverage you are referring to. Try getting online quotes on http://www.tripinsurancestore.com. Premium (insurance cost) depends on age, inclusive trip dates and cost. Trip date coverage starts when you leave home, and end when you arrive home, regardless of destination port.

Cruisin' Along Posted October 31, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I use Travel Guard for insurance because they partner with Costco. The insurance is a premium plan, usually at a very good price. When requesting a quote, though,Travel Guard requires filling in the destination. I'm not sure what to list for destination on a repositioning cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitzel Posted November 1, 2017 #4 Share Posted November 1, 2017 It can be your departure port or your first non-US port. Read the FAQs for the site that you are using if you are unsure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called and asked which country to use and was told any country that we visit. That was about 3 years ago. Since then I always put in all the countries one at a time looking at quotes and then choose the cheapest. On a 28 day South Pacific cruise it was as much as $200 difference in the insurance cost choosing the cheapest country. We just got back from a 15 day TA and it was over $100 difference.

Rare Scrapnana Posted November 11, 2017 #6 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Call the company. I have had one insurance company that wanted the port farthest from the US and another that wanted the first port when leaving the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
