kcwingwalker Posted September 17, 2013 #28 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I was thinking the same thing. NCL has one physician per ship . . . The jumbos may be an exception, I never traveled the big 'uns, so I won't say. ETA - searched the web and found this . . . http://book.hollandamerica.com/pdfs/media/factsheets/OnboardMedicalServices_FactSheet.pdf Yep, two physicians . . . perhaps their demographic demands it. When we needed medical assistance on the Norwegian Spirit there were two physicians, one was from Cape Town South Africa and very good. I'll take this opportunity to show NCL and the entire crew of the Spirit my gratitude for their kindness, respect and expert care................thank you!

Talisker92 Posted September 17, 2013 #29 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Here are two real life examples why you should have trip insurance: This past February my wife fell and broke her foot a week before a scheduled cruise. We had to cancel and insurance reimbursed us. Last year my wife came down with a severe lung infection on a Princess ship. She was treated for a week on board then sent to a hospital in NY because she could not fly home. After our Medicare HMO paid part, the insurance picked up the rest including our flight home. In both cases we would have been out thousands of dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
