Can I book Travel Insurance through Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines?
Cruise Insurance
We want your cruise to be as smooth and stress-free as possible—and having the right travel insurance is a big part of that. It’s a requirement when booking with us, but more importantly, it gives you peace of mind so you can focus on the fun stuff
Here are our top tips to help you get organised:
Tip 1: Choose cruise-specific cover
It’s the best way to avoid any surprises later on. It must include repatriation at sea.
Tip 2: Check what’s really covered
Cheaper policies can be tempting, but they might not cover everything you need. Take a few minutes to read the details so you know exactly what’s included.
Tip 3: Get insured early
The sooner you arrange your insurance after booking, the better. It means your deposit is protected and you can relax knowing you're covered.
