janny444 Posted September 29, 2013 #2 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Mmmm...depends how cheap it was because sometimes one goes just for the cruise and the POC are not that important but it would certainly have to be reflected in the price. You would probably have to take an extra suitcase..or two...not sure how many you are allowed to take on board but I know it is a lot...to cover all eventualities. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silversurf Posted September 29, 2013 #4 Share Posted September 29, 2013 How would you get your travel insurance when you can't tell them where you are going? My insurance company will only insure me for certain countries due to medical conditions. If I wanted to go to the Caribbean it would cost as much in insurance as the cruise itself.

gadabout60 Posted September 29, 2013 #5 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Presume you could start guessing by the length of the cruise ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilson2579 Posted September 29, 2013 #6 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Presume you could start guessing by the length of the cruise ? and if it was only 7 days you would know not to bother with warm weather clothing:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCFC Posted September 29, 2013 #7 Share Posted September 29, 2013 You could look up some nearby ports on something like cruisett.com and fit it together on a rainy day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the english lady Posted September 30, 2013 Author #8 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I did think you could pick the obvious ports for 14 day cruises, and then start looking to see if BW is booked into any of them at that time, but then I thought, would that spoil the fun a bit, if I got on board knowing exactly where I was going...

silversurf Posted September 30, 2013 #9 Share Posted September 30, 2013 It's a 14 day cruise. And guessing wouldn't cut much ice with your travel insurance company who want to know exactly where you are going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I wanted to go to the Caribbean it would cost as much in insurance as the cruise itself. As it's a 14 day cruise you are really on having the options of northern Europe (Baltics) , Canaries, Western Med. We are not at the stage of needing special insurance cover yet, but I would guess that non of those places would cause problems for an insurer.

Essexlass2 Posted September 30, 2013 #11 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Credit card companies also want to know where the cardholder is travelling if they are to approve any purchases on shore :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubydoobydoo Posted September 30, 2013 #12 Share Posted September 30, 2013 No I would not be brave enough to go for this, I like to know what I am doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParCan Posted October 1, 2013 #13 Share Posted October 1, 2013 This is quite appealing to us. If the price wasn't quite so high I'd be tempted to book. We simply don't have £1100 to spend on a cruise at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
