cruisevirgin66 Posted March 14, 2012 #1 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Hi there Wondered if anyone can give me advice on where I can get reasonable cruise insurance for my mum? She's 80, with heart problems, a pacemaker etc. We are hoping to head off to the Fjords in May or June on a no-fly from UK (we live here!). Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted March 14, 2012 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Have you talked to your TA? In the US, you have to purchase the insurance within 14 days of booking of most will not cover pre-existing conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Since you reside in the UK and would have purchase the insurance in the UK you're best to post your question on the UK Cruisers Forum.

Killington Posted March 14, 2012 #4 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Ageuk.org, travel insurance is under "Products" tab. You can fill in a questionnaire online and get either a quote or a referral to a tel no. if medical conditions are outside an online quote.

vancouvermeg Posted March 22, 2012 #7 Share Posted March 22, 2012 DH had a heart attack last year (aged 43) and we got it with TopDog Insurance (through moneysupermarket.com). Cost £90 extra for one heart attack (with meds for high blood pressure and choloestrol) if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jocap Posted March 23, 2012 #8 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Have you tried Saga insurance? I believe that some Saga cruises include insurance, and transport to the docks from home.... Jo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
