Hello all,

I am a newbie to the Community and I hope this is the correct place to be posting this question, please forgive me if it isn't (and direct me to a more appropriate place to ask the question).

I will be going on a cruise holiday this summer and was interested in hearing about members recommendations regarding Travel Insurance, best providers, pro's and cons, tips and suggestions regarding travel insurance for this type of holiday.

We will be travelling around the Baltic and the trip is a 14 day one.

Any help/suggestions gratefully received.

Many Thanks,

John

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    The online community is divided into different support forums and we have one dedicated to the sort of information that you are after called the travel insurance forum for cancer patients.

    To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.

    Within that forum there is a thread entitled 'recommended travel insurance' and it's where you'll find the majority of recommendations from other members. It's rather a long thread so it's probably best to go through it, jotting down all the recommendations before you start phoning around.

    It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
