Couples Cruises

Yes, when getting a Travel Insurance quote for your couples cruise, you must declare all pre-existing medical conditions of each traveller. This can be done within the same policy for couples but each traveller’s details, including their pre-existing medical conditions, must be declared separately. Failing to declare all pre-existing medical conditions could make your policy void should something go wrong, and you may end up paying out of pocket. At Just Travel Cover, we specialise in Travel Insurance with cover for hundreds of pre-existing medical conditions and can help you find a couples cruise policy tailored to you.

Cancellation cover is a key element of Insurance and it starts the day you buy your (single trip) policy. If you need to cancel your cruise (for an insured reason) you may be able to claim on your Travel Insurance to recover some/all of the costs paid, but check the terms of the policy to ensure you have enough cover. With regards to interruptions, some policies include a cruise interruption benefit, of for example you required hospital treatment on dry land and were later declared well enough to rejoin the cruise.  

For couples on cruises, you can both benefit from cruise-specific Travel Insurance policies, including:

• Cancellation: Up to £12,500 per person (or £50,000 on referral).
• Medical cover and repatriation up to £12,500 per person
• Baggage cover up to £3,000 per person

And some policies provide additional benefits, including:

• Missed port departure: Up to £1,500, covering unexpected delays.
• Cabin confinement: Up to £1,500 if confined due to illness.
• Unused excursions: Claim back up to £500 for missed pre-booked excursions.
• Itinerary change: Cover of up to £750 for altered itineraries.
• Cruise interruption: Up to £1,500 for medical disembarkation.

When comparing different Cruise Travel Insurance policies, you should consider the cost of your cruise and ensure you have sufficient cancellation cover. We provide varying levels of cover across different insurers, but can also offer additional “top up” cover, up to £50,000pp. Always check you have at least £5m medical and repatriation cover too. After purchasing, ensure you have the medical assistance number handy, alongside your policy number. We’d also advise storing policy documents on your phone or printing a copy at home.

Yes, as long as you and your partner live at the same address, you can secure couples’ Travel Insurance under the same single policy. This may be more convenient and sometimes more cost-effective than purchasing two separate policies. If you or your partner suffers from any pre-existing medical conditions, these must be declared on your policy. When obtaining a policy as a couple, you can declare any medical conditions under each person and be insured under the same policy. Make sure you answer ‘YES’ to the cruise question if heading on a cruise for couples.
