Specialist cruise travel insurance by Freedom, providing expert cover for pre-existing medical conditions.

Cruise Travel Insurance Covering Pre-Existing Medical Conditions

Planning a cruise holiday? At Freedom Insurance, we understand that cruising offers a unique way to travel but it also comes with specific risks that standard travel insurance may not cover. That’s why we offer dedicated cruise travel insurance designed especially for travellers with pre-existing medical conditions.

Whether you’re setting sail around the Mediterranean, exploring the Norwegian fjords, or embarking on a world cruise, our specialist policies provide the comprehensive protection you need, so you can relax and enjoy every moment at sea.

FAQs

Some of our most frequently asked questions.

Who is eligible to purchase cover with Freedom insurance?

Our travel insurance products are available to permanent UK residents who are registered with a GP in the UK. Some of our products can also cover residents of the Channel Islands or Isle of Man. You need to be fit to travel at the time of purchasing travel insurance cover.

We use a medical risk assessment tool to enable us to provide you with a quote. You will be asked a number of questions about your medical status. From the information provided we will base our quotes on your health status.

Yes. Our aim is to cover you fully, if you do not declare all of your pre-existing medical conditions then you will not be fully covered in the event of a claim and risk invalidating your insurance.

As we operate an on-going medical warranty, you will need to inform us of any health changes that occur between your quotation/purchase date and the date of travel. We may be required to ask additional questions to ensure your travel insurance is up to date and fully covering you for the trip.

We cover you from the time you start your trip right up until the day you return back to the UK, (except for cancellation cover which starts when you buy the policy and ends when you start your trip).

We accept all major debit and credit cards including American Express. You can make payment online during the customer quote journey, or by calling the Freedom team on 01223 454 290.

We’ll consider cover for people while they are receiving medical treatment including chemotherapy. We base all our quotes on individual circumstances. However, we cannot cover the actual cost of any on-going treatment that you know you will require during the trip, such as dialysis or cancer treatments.

We’re proud to be trusted by thousands of customers across the UK, take a look:
