Help me make a wise decision

[flitter306]

FI and I booked B2B cruises for our honeymoon later this year. Final payment is due in June and I imagine that's when we need to purchase trip insurance by? (Please correct me if I'm wrong!)

 

-Do you recommend any particular agency for trip insurance?

-Can I get an insurance that covers both the flights and the cruises - or do I need separate policies?

-What exactly does the insurance cover? (i.e. illness, weather, etc.)

-Are there other things I should know before getting the insurance?

 

On our last cruise we got the insurance through Carnival, but now that I've been following CC boards, I think there are better alternatives out there. And considering this is our honeymoon, I want to make sure everything is done right - so please help!!

 

TIA

If you go to insuremytrip.com you can compare policies and purchase what YOU need and what YOU feel is important. As a nurse I always worry about Medical Evacuation....also because I'm probably older than you.

 

Give it a try, I have always been happy with the quotes and the policies I have purchased. Luckily I have never needed to make a claim.;)

Another good place I've found to make 'side-by-side' comparisons for travel insurance is here: http://www.tripinsurancestore.com . (I'm not affiliated in any way.) One thing to be aware of when buying travel insurance is whether your policy is 'Primary" or 'Secondary'. There is a very important difference. Making the wrong choice could be a nightmare should you ever need to use the insurance coverage.

 

Good Luck.

I have been given this to check out - have not used them myself yet.

I understand they are good for everyone - not just students.
