Having suitable insurance cover is a mandatory requirement for your cruise.Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is also pleased to work in association with specialist cruise insurance provider Holiday Extras.They can provide full Coronavirus cover. This can include cover for guests who contract Covid-19 prior to their cruise and therefore have to cancel their holiday, as well as cover for up to £15m if a guest contracts Covid-19 while travelling. This covers medical assistance, repatriation and accommodation costs for a guest and their travelling companion.

*Top Tip: Be properly insured for you and your Fred. Olsen cruise holiday. If you haven’t declared all your pre-existing medical conditions to your insurer or have not taken out an insurance policy that covers a holiday at sea, the financial consequences could be significant to you. Don’t risk a large financial bill. Tip Two: Avoid potential loopholes. It is tempting to save money and opt for the cheapest holiday insurance. However, many of these policies have loopholes that will not provide cover for the exact circumstance in the claim. Be sure to thoroughly investigate what’s covered in the policy. Tip Three: Consider annual cover. For travellers lucky enough to be embarking on several trips a year, annual policies may work out to be the best value. For multiple holidays, an annual insurance policy provides cover for the year ahead. What is the difference between cruise insurance and general travel insurance? General travel insurance is mostly designed for those planning to relax on a land-based holiday, by the pool, on the beach, or with a little sightseeing, for example. A cruise holiday has very different elements, requiring a more specialist cover. It’s unlikely that a standard holiday insurance policy would provide cover in the unfortunate event of having to be medically evacuated by helicopter or launch whilst at sea. This, for instance, is the type of scenario that specialist cruise insurance would take into account, giving you reassurance that you’re suitably covered throughout your trip should the unexpected occur.
