Cruising particularly expensive?

Hi All

I’m in adjuvant treatment for resected melanoma and am seeking annual cover for travel including a couple of cruises booked long before melanoma raised its nasty head! One of these is in Australia, the other in Europe excluding Spain. We’re likely to do other travel if treatment allows, but can limit this to Europe. We are currently covered through our Cooperative Bank account, but their insurer won’t cover cancer.

I’m getting back quotes between £2.3 and £2.7K just for me - although I can add my husband in for very little more and that seems a sensible thing to do. 

Is it worth me continuing to shop around or must I bite the bullet and pay in excess of £2K? Any experience out there of this particular scenario?
