Bumping this thread. Like the original poster, I'd like to find insurance that will insure MY TOTAL COST for a new Viking trip I booked last month. Most of the cost of this trip was covered by a voucher issued by Viking for a trip I paid for last year. I had to cancel that trip because I came down with Covid (in the embarkation port! So near, yet so far...)
I bought Viking insurance for this new trip, but found out too late that Viking''s "TripMate" does not insure the value of their own vouchers: "once redeemed, vouchers will not be reissued"
Has anyone else in this position found a third party insurer that will insure the value of the vouchers?
I've gone through two online brokers, and contacted four insurers. I have yet to find a company which addresses "vouchers" in their "Certificate of Insurance". I've tried speaking to company agents, but I get different answers depending on who answers the phone. Since the scenario isn't addressed in the written contracts, it seems to be subject to interpretation. Clearly I'd prefer to purchase insurance from a company with an unambiguous guarantee of coverage.
Thanks to anyone who has been successful in their own search and can share any insights.
