Do I need cruise insurance to go on an overnight (2 day + 1 night) cruise with your company? My travel insurance said I had to ask the company! They stipulated that if there was a medical team onboard I would need specific cruise insurance. Other travel insurers state that if cruise is less than 3 days - no cruise insurance required. Thank you
Dear Maree Taylor, The cruise does not include personal insurance and it does not require any insurance. If you want to have insurance, you can purchase a personal travel insurance for your whole trip. I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Annie (Ms.)
