Why Travel Insurance Is Essential for Wave Season as 2025 Cruise Bookings Surge
NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2025 /JamNewsWire/ — TravelInsurance.com, the leading platform for comparing and purchasing travel insurance from global providers, makes it easier for cruisers to compare plans and find the most personalized coverage at the best price during the 2025 Wave Season. According to Cruise MarketWatch, 15 new ships with a combined passenger capacity of 38,629 are set to enter the market and are projected to facilitate a total of 33.7 million passengers by the end of 2025, representing a 4.9% increase over 2024 and a 22.4% rise compared to 2019.
“Cruises can be a fantastic travel experience, but they come with unique risks,” said Stan Sandberg, co-founder of TravelInsurance.com. “From missed connections to medical emergencies, travel insurance is necessary for protecting your investment. Shopping around for the right coverage tailored to your needs is essential for finding the best coverage at the best price.”
TravelInsurance.com offers comprehensive plans that can cover these scenarios and more, including:
- Trip Cancellation and Interruption: Reimbursement for non-refundable costs due to covered reasons like illness or emergencies.
- Missed Connections: Coverage for costs to catch up with your cruise at the next port.
- Missed Ports of Call: Compensation for skipped ports due to itinerary changes and other unforeseen inconveniences.
- Medical and Dental: Emergency expenses incurred during the trip.
- Baggage and Personal Effects: Protection for lost or damaged belongings.
Unlike the coverage offered by cruise lines, which often limits options, TravelInsurance.com allows travelers to choose the plan that they feel is more appropriate for them, and at times, more economical. TravelInsurance.com also advises that insurance should be purchased immediately after booking to maximize benefits, like obtaining an upgrade such as “Cancel For Any Reason” coverage and to qualify for Pre-existing Condition coverage. Purchasing early can ensure that travelers secure pre-departure protection and comprehensive coverage all throughout the cruise.
