pennib Posted November 16, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I am getting together our paperwork etc for Azura’s Christmas cruise and note that communications from P&O about travel insurance state that the insurance will be vetted by them prior to boarding the ship and if it is not in order, you will be denied boarding. Can anyone tell me how thorough this is. Presumably as ours is a fly cruise, the vetting will take place at the departure airport. Again, can anyone confirm this?

davecttr Posted November 16, 2021 #2 Share Posted November 16, 2021 They just asked if I had insurance, yes I replied getting out the insurance cover letter. They glanced at it and said OK. I think they just do the occasional spot check otherwise we would be there all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make sure that your insurance,"validation certificate" has "cruise:covered" on it and "emergency medical & repatriation" set to a minimum of £2,000,000.As long as you have this all in order i can't see any concerns,apart from the wrong names printed.There could be P&O staff at the airport just to make sure,but you should do all this before leaving home.

Jennizor Posted November 17, 2021 #5 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Just as others have said, all you need is your Validation Certificate showing cruise cover. This was all that was required at Southampton in September and is what is required at the airport in the next couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We confirmed we had insurance when asked, but were not asked to show the documentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
