The devil is in the details. We have found that third party insurers were the way to go for cruises and other trips. (Check out Allianz). Since we travel 3-4 times per year, an annual policy definitely provides more for less money. While we haven’t had to use it yet, it seems to be the prudent thing to do at our age.
