Q. Why should I get specialist cruise insurance?

A. A cruise is a unique holiday, and specialist cruise insurance will cover you for the particular issues that might arise, such as being confined to your stateroom in case of illness, or missing a planned port visit due to adverse weather conditions. It provides additional cover (internal link) if you need to cancel your cruise for any reason of up to £25,000.

Q. Can I purchase Cruise travel insurance if I am not travelling on a Cruise?

A. The Single trip cruise policy is only available to people who are travelling on a cruise. However if you purchase an Annual cruise policy as long as one holiday is a cruise, the policy will then cover you for all other holidays taken in that year regardless of whether they are a cruise or not.

Q. What's a pre-existing medical condition?

A. If you have taken any medication, or received treatment for any condition/s in the last two years by a doctor or at a hospital.

Q. Why does my pre-existing condition need cover?

A. If you should require medical assistance on your cruise, without comprehensive cover, that includes your pre-existing condition, it could be a very costly experience.

Q. I'm not sure what's wrong, I am having tests, is this a pre-existing medical condition?

A. We cannot assess a condition that has not been diagnosed. Wait until you have the results from your medical professional. Once a condition is diagnosed then we can assess it.

Q. My treatment finishes soon, should I wait?

A. No, just answer the questions as of today. If you are still having treatment, even if it finishes tomorrow, answer yes because you are still having treatment today.

Q. I've got a medical condition but the rest of the family does not. Should they get cruise travel insurance elsewhere?

A. No, we recommend that all people on the same cruise be covered under the same travel insurance policy.

Q. Will I need a medical certificate?

A. We very rarely ask for one. We rely on you answering the medical questions accurately. We do not cover claims for any existing medical problem which you have not told us about.

Q. Are there any age limits?

A. The maximum age limit for annual cruise travel insurance is 64 years old. Single cruise trips have no upper age limit.

A cruise with a difference

So the day has finally arrived. The one that you have been planning for over a year. And no I am not just talking about the day you go on your cruise, I am talking about the day of your wedding.

You see more and more people nowadays are planning their wedding abroad, and a holiday on a cruise is very popular. You only have to look at all the information on the P and O cruises site about weddings to see what I mean.

But having got married myself last year (in the UK, not abroad), this really got me thinking about the differences of getting married on ship. There are the obvious things - the fact that the marriage ceremony can be performed by the captain while looking out to sea; your family sharing your honeymoon with you; and the facilities and wonderful food available on ship. But at the same time, there will be some similarities - you will still need to organise many of those little bits that go with the wedding -things like the photographer, the menu choices, the guest list, the cake.

And so, not to be the bearer of doom and gloom, but my thoughts led me onto the 'what if the worse should happen' scenarios. Things like the ships photographers falling overboard (ok maybe not that extreme!) or a problem with the cake, which, let's face it, could be quite difficult to rectify when you are 1000s of miles out to sea. Or even an outbreak of Norovirus (although if you read this blog, you will know the risk of this is less than the media would have you think).

Your wedding on board ship

Unfortunately, sometimes wedding nightmares do happen, like this poor couple's wedding cruise experience, They had booked a wedding package with Carnival Cruise Lines, however, at 7 a.m. on the day of their wedding, there was a bomb threat and the wedding was delayed. In the end, the reception including the buffet was cancelled as there wasn't enough time.

Ok so this is a particularly shocking story, but the fact is that with a major event like a wedding there is always a risk (however small) of things going wrong. We all know that there is wedding cover available should we choose to use it when we are on land. But what you might not be aware is that you can also get additional wedding cover with your specialist cruise insurance. Cover can include wedding gifts, photographs, ceremony clothes, wedding rings, flowers and cakes.

So sorry to add something else to consider if you are planning your wedding on board ship, but specialist wedding cruise insurance could be something that could be really useful
