Canstar Award winner
Go Insurance has been recognised for outstanding value in Cruise Travel Insurance for three consecutive years.
Cruise holidays have different risks
A cruise is not always the same as a standard overseas trip, especially when it comes to medical care, missed departures and itinerary changes.
Medical treatment onboard can be expensive, Medicare may not apply at sea, and unexpected disruptions can quickly create additional costs.
Cover that travels with your itinerary
Whether you are cruising through the South Pacific, Asia, Europe, North America or closer to home, the right cover can help you travel with greater confidence.
Go Insurance offers cruise cover options designed to support your travel plans, your budget and the way cruise holidays actually work.
What can go wrong on a cruise holiday?
Cruise holidays can involve risks that are different from a standard land-based trip.
Medicare generally does not apply onboard a cruise ship, and medical treatment costs may be charged directly to you.
If treatment is not available onboard, evacuation to hospital may be required, potentially in a foreign location and at significant cost.
Delayed flights or other travel disruptions can cause you to miss embarkation and create extra travel expenses.
Weather or timetable changes can lead to missed ports, missed shore visits and lost prepaid excursion costs.
What our Cruise Extension covers
Our Cruise Extension is designed to help protect you from common cruise-specific disruptions that can affect your holiday.
If you or your travelling companion become sick, or adverse weather prevents you from attending a booked excursion, we may cover the financial loss.
If your ship cannot dock at a scheduled port because of adverse weather or timetable restrictions, a cash benefit may apply.
If you are confined to your cabin and quarantined by the ship’s doctor, we provide a daily cash benefit for each affected day.
If urgent medical treatment cannot be provided onboard, we cover the cost of emergency evacuation from the ship to shore so you can access appropriate medical care.
Cover is subject to the terms, conditions, limits and exclusions of the policy. Please read the Product Disclosure Statement before purchasing.
Adding a cruise to your trip?
If your holiday includes a cruise, make sure your travel insurance is suitable for cruise travel.
Cruise-specific benefits may only apply where the relevant cover has been selected and is shown on your Certificate of Insurance.
