S&S Cruisers 1983 Posted January 3, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I was pricing cruises on the NCL website and noticed that the insurance is not quoted in the price anymore. Did they start to automatically add it in, or will it ask me whether I want it or not later in the booking? I usually do not take their insurance and purchase my own but I don't know if it is hidden in the price. Not a big deal, just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakerintn Posted January 3, 2009 #2 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I am sure that it is not buried in the price. In fact, I think that is illegal in most states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzinaway Posted January 3, 2009 #3 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Just booked the Jade and was asked if I wanted to purchase insurance at an additional cost. There are still two levels of coverage - basic and platinum. Price of insurance is based on the price of your cruise. Happy cruising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many knowledgeable travelers don't book insurance through the cruiseline anyway (it doesn't cover as much, lower limits, etc) -- so NCL's "default" setting of including it was making them look overly pricey. I'm glad they are done with that schtick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
