This will be my first Princess cruise (seven night northbound Alaska), but I'm planning to bring either a charcoal business suit or a tan sport coat along for formal nights. Will this be in keeping with the spirit of the event? I've looked into renting a tux, but right now I'm thinking about putting the money elsewhere.
Would your insurance have covered Your Cancelation due to Hurricane Harvey?

The house is flooded. The city is a disaster area. The airports are closed. The travel insurance company is being difficult.
I booked a late-season Alaska cruise in September of last year for myself and my parents. In February, I purchased travel insurance through TravelEx for the full cost of the cruise. We made final payment on time and were making plans to leave next Wednesday morning. Then Harvey dropped by.
My parents are currently trapped on their street by high water, but their house is dry. My garage and utility area flooded with six inches of water, but the main living area is on pier and beam construction and has escaped...so far. However, I am going to have to make a flood insurance claim and I will need to stay in town to coordinate repairs. My elderly parents are nervous wrecks and say that they cannot travel now. However, the insurance company says that because our homes are not technically uninhabitable, we have no claim.
Any suggestions?
