What cruise insurance must cover
Frequently asked questions
Do I need travel insurance for a cruise?
It is strongly recommended and required for a Schengen visa. Medical care and evacuation at sea can cost tens of thousands of dollars.
Does normal travel insurance cover cruises?
Not always. Check for missed port departure, cabin confinement and evacuation from a ship; many standard policies exclude or limit these.
Who is the insurer?
Policies are issued by an IRDAI-licensed insurance partner for residents of India, and by licensed partners in other markets. The insurer's name and policy wording are shown before you buy.
Can seniors buy cover?
Yes. Premiums rise with age bands and some plans have upper age limits; we show the options for every traveller in your group.
