I have incurable but stable kidney cancer and would love to go on a cruise. Does anyone have any information about insurance covering cruises? Is it more difficult/expensive than other holidays?
Yes it can be, Cruise adds a Premium and depends where your Cruising to. Stay in Europe and it’s better...
I use insurancewith.com and went on a Caribbean Cruise, it’s all about timing I think. I have 3 monthly CTs to monitor my treatment and monthly bloods, so that routine for me.
Insurance companies don’t like you “waiting “ for something so I book after my latest OPA when I have my treatment plan
Hope that helps
Hi
I 'spoke' to you in the kidney group and recommended that you joined us over here.
Have you looked through the 'Recommended Travel Insurance' thread yet as there are lots of recommendations there? If not you should easily spot it on this first page.
Best wishes
I was going to book it after my scan results anyway, just for my own peace of mind. Hopefully nothing has changed.
Good plan, hope all goes well and you have a great holiday x
