If the world has taught us ONE thing over the past two years, traveling without insurance is a financially risky decision! Cruise Planners, Jeffrey Almoney & Associates recommends that every single traveler carry an appropriate level of travel insurance when traveling anywhere, but especially outside of the United States.
- Cruise Planner agents are authorized to offer Allianz Travel Insurance to all of our clients.
- When you place a deposit down on your cruise, your first invoice will include a preliminary travel insurance quote calculated by Allianz Insurance Company. Your invoice will include a coverage summary and link to the formal Allianz brochure
- Travel insurance is automatically calculated as a factor of both your age and the total cost of your vacation (Cruise, Air, Hotel etc).
- Allianz allows Cruise Planner clients to purchase travel insurance at the time of final payment for the first non-refundable travel component that you purchase.
- Allianz travel insurance policies are available to those living in the U.S. only. If you do not reside in the United States, we will be more than happy to offer you quotes from Royal Caribbean's travel protection program or you may seek insurance coverage in your country.
- If you choose NOT to purchase travel insurance, Cruise Planners, Jeffrey Almoney & Assoc will require that you sign a Travel Protection Waiver form before placing your final payment. This form simply states that you were offered insurance, but declined it.
- Please remember that medical services in foreign countries and on board the ship may not to be covered by your personal health insurance. It is the responsibility of each guest to know their specific circumstances when considering insurance.
- Pay particular attention to coverages for medical expenses and medical evacuation limits on whatever protection plan you consider. If you require medical transportation off the ship or from a foreign country, the cost can be a financial disaster for most people.
- If you do not travel with appropriate travel insurance coverage, you assume all risk associated with travel and transportation on the Cruise. While at sea or in port, the availability of medical care may be limited and/or delayed. You acknowledge that all or part of the Cruise may be in areas where medical care and/or evacuation may not be available. You agree to indemnify and reimburse Cruise Planners, Jeffrey Almoney & Associates and/or Royal Caribbean in the event that either party, in its sole discretion, advances to you the cost of emergency medical care, including medical evacuation and/or medical care provided ashore, as well as transportation and/or lodging in connection therewith. Neither Cruise Planners, Jeffrey Almoney & Associates nor Royal Caribbean shall have any responsibility to advance any such costs.
