39august Posted September 5, 2017 #1 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I filed a claim for 75% of unrefundable cruise fare on the RCI travel insurance, which offfers "cancel for any reason", for my Aug. 27 Liberty cruise. I was advised by the insurance company that my claim should be settled in about 3 weeks and that I would get a letter stating the amount of credit RCI was giving for future cruises. Can anyone share their experience with this type of claim, please? I know the cruise was eventually formally cancelled, but we didn't wait and cancelled a couple of days prior to the cruise date.

klfrodo Posted September 5, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 5, 2017 and cancelled a couple of days prior to the cruise date. This sentence is very important. You cannot utilize the "CFAR" if you cancel less than 48 hours before trip departure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted September 6, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Cancel for any reason has no such restriction on the policy. What are you talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6rugrats Posted September 6, 2017 #4 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Cancel for any reason has no such restriction on the policy. What are you talking about? RCI policies don't have this requirement. But, insurance policies for "cancel for any reason" through outside parties, such as Travelguard or Travelsafe, require cancellation within a set number of hours before your trip.

39august Posted September 6, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Good to know. We have the RCI travel policy, so no such restriction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
