Why It Matters
Understanding your cruise insurance options helps you make the best choice for your holiday.
Coverage for All Family Members
Family cruise insurance covers both adults and children in your group with a single policy. Everyone gets the same comprehensive protection including medical care, emergency evacuation, baggage protection, and trip cancellation. No need for separate individual policies.
Child Medical Coverage
Quality family cruise insurance includes medical coverage specifically for childrenādoctor visits, medications, hospital care, and emergency treatment while cruising. Paediatric care overseas can be expensive and challenging, so good coverage is essential for parents.
Cancellation If a Child Gets Sick
If a child falls ill before departure and you need to cancel, family cruise insurance reimburses your entire family's fare and pre-booked arrangements. This protection is invaluableāit means you don't lose your holiday investment if a child gets sick.
Affordable Group Rates
Insuring your whole family together is often cheaper than individual policies. Family rates make comprehensive coverage more affordable, especially for larger families. Compare group rates when booking your cruise.

How does family cruise insurance work in NZ?
Family cruise insurance covers all members of your household travelling on the same cruise under a single policy. Each person gets the same benefits and coverage levels. You pay one premium for the whole family, which is typically cheaper than separate individual policies. When applying, list all travellersāadults and childrenāand their ages.
Are babies and very young children covered?
Yes, babies and young children can be covered on family cruise insurance policies. Some insurers insure children from birth, while others start coverage from age 3ā6 months. Infants travelling with parents are usually insurable at minimal or no extra cost. Check age requirements when getting your family quote.
What happens if a child gets sick and we need to cancel?
If a child falls ill before departure and you need to cancel for medical reasons, family cruise insurance reimburses your entire family's cruise fare and any associated costs (flights, accommodation, excursions) up to the policy limit. You'll need medical documentation of the illness. This is why cancellation cover is so valuable for families.
