TRAVEL INSURANCE TIPS FROM INSUREMYTRIP.COM HELP YOU CRUISE WITH CONFIDENCE
WARWICK, RI, December 11, 2008—Cruise fares are at their lowest since post-September 11, reports industry newsletter Cruise Week, prompting many consumers to pack their bags and head for the high seas. Yet even low-cost trips can lose their bargain value if they’re not properly protected with travel insurance. Before you go, consider these travel insurance tips from InsureMyTrip.com:
- Plan ahead and protect your vacation before it begins.
- Buy your insurance within 7-21 days after making your first cruise deposit to ensure pre-existing medical conditions and Supplier Financial Default are covered.
- Carefully review plan details before purchasing. Make sure you’re selecting the right policy for you.
- Buy travel insurance from a third-party source. If you buy your cruise line’s insurance, most claims are settled with vouchers for future travel rather than a reimbursement of your trip cost. Additionally, should the cruise line become financially insolvent, typically their policy will not provide coverage to protect your investment.
Travel insurance is key to protecting all your cruise vacations from unexpected but very common events like a sudden illness, travel-related delays and interruptions, and unemployment. With the right coverage, you can protect your travel investments and earn real peace of mind.
