Could travel insurance protect your cruise budget, or leave you with thousands in uncovered costs? We discuss what cruise travel insurance actually covers, why trip cancellation is often misunderstood, and why medical care and emergency evacuation may matter more than baggage benefits.

We also compare cruise line plans, third-party coverage, annual policies, single-trip insurance, Medicare, and travel credit card benefits. Plus, we explain the $2,000 cancellation cap in Melissa’s Allianz annual plan and share three questions to help you decide whether to buy coverage or safely self-insure.
